Birthday Countdown

3 yr old- "Mommy. What are you doing?'

ME- "Taking my vitamins."

3 yr old- "Taking your vitamins? Why are you doing that?"

ME- "Well, when people get older they need to take vitamins to stay healthy."

3 yr old- "No! No mommy. You can't get older. Don't say that!"

ME- (stroking her hair) "It's ok honey. Everybody gets older."

3 yr old- (with a tear in her eye) "Don't say that mommy. I don't want you to get older. It makes me a little upset if you say that."
