The other morning Taurin was awake while Andrew was getting ready for work. We had a conversation on one end of the couch while Andrew put his boots on at the other end. It went something like this....
Taurin: "Dad is a cop mom."
Me: "Yeah, he is. A cop is also called a police officer."
Taurin: With full confidence in her voice. "Yeah, and he saves us."
Me: "Yes he does, and he helps save other people too, and protect them from the bad guys."
Taurin: "Who are the bad guys mom? What are their names?"
Me: "Well, I don't know their names but they are people who break the law, and hurt other people... stuff like that."
Taurin: "Yeah! He is soo amazing!"
Me: "Yeah... he's kind of like a hero. Like a super hero."
Taurin: "Yeah! He IS a super hero!"
Andrew: "Taurin, mommy is silly."
Me: "Daddy is just trying to be humble Taurin."
Taurin: "Yeah Dad, you are being a humble."
How I love that she believes that he is the strongest, most amazing man in the world. That's a good dad.
Awe I have had many convos like this with my sugar monsters :)
