Straight from the Mouth of Babes
A conversation from yesterday:
La Nina: What does 'spoiled' mean?
Me: When you give someone everything they want and then they start to expect it.
La Nina: So, like when you're really nice?
Me: Well, kind of. But it's more when someone is just giving another person something to the point where they don't even notice it as a gift anymore. The person receiving never says thank you or anything. They just expect it.
La Nina: Oh, I get it. Like Daddy.
And at that I was left speechless.

That kills me!
Of course, I would have to say I'm the spoiled one in our household...I've gotten so used to Edward doing the dishes (...and the laundry, and the grocery shopping...) that if I have to do them I get annoyed!
