The scene from last night:
She saw the others I was making for the other kids.
“I want one Mama, with an F on it.”
“OK sweetie, I’ll make one, just for you.”
Since I finished the others shirts last night, I got up early to have hers ready before she woke up.
Scene from this morning:
“Hide your eyes, I said.”
She closed her eyes, and asked, “can I open them now?”
“In a second.”
“Now?”
“Yes, now.”
Stare. Blank. Nothing.
“Isn’t that what you wanted? An F?”
“No, mama, I wanted a T. I don’t want an F. And I didn’t want polka dots.”
“What?”
“I wanted a T. I don’t want an F. And I didn’t want polka dots.”
“Seriously? So you don’t want this one? This one, that I got up early to make? Just. For. You?”
“No.”
“So really, you don’t want it?”
“No.”
“So, I can give it way to another girl whose name starts with F?”
“Yes.”
“Whatever.”
So… if any of you out there know of a girl who wears a 4T and her name starts with an F, let me know.

F for fickle!
Too funny! You just dialoged my life - daily.
Sounds exactly like something my daughter would do!!
Perhaps a D for diva? ;)
You were so sweet to do that and make it a surprise. What a shame. Darn, I wish I knew an "F" girl. Do you make them for women too? :-)
That sounds soooo familiar, and my little Miss isn't quite close to a 4T yet.
I agree with Hanlie - F for fickle, or Val - D for diva!!
And the moral of the story is... never get up early for any reason!
Oh no! & it's so cute, too.
What Hanlie said.
It's a cute shirt, anyway!
Love it, cute shirt!
hahaha! Gotta love kids...honest as the day is long. Cute shirt though!
