We have been tossing around the idea of moving to a new house to get the kids closer to their school. Naturally, this topic is bringing daily interest from the kids. Here is a conversation I had with Amelia yesterday....
Me: I looked at a house today.
Amelia: Did you like it?
Me: Ummm, I liked it, but I wasn't crazy about it.
Amelia: Then why would we buy it?
Me: Well, mommy and daddy are really trying hard to find a house that will get you guys closer to school, give you some neighborhood friends, etc.
Amelia: Daddy, we aren't the only ones moving. You and mommy need to think about yourselves too. You need to be happy.
Me: You're right. We will. There's just a lot that goes into being a parent.
Amelia: Yeah, well, just make sure you think of yourself too .... I mean, definitely think of me first. But, then think about you. Me first. Then you.
Me: You're too kind.
