She needs to take the time to paint her toenails...
They paint theirs several times each week.
She wants to spend her time in the summer doing things with them...
They want to spend their time with friends.
She is trying to negotiate the tween/teen years...
They are doing just fine!
She wishes she could stop the world and hold them for awhile...
They hold their i-pods.
She waters the garden,
They grow.
She mows the lawn,
They cut their dinner short.
She washes the dishes,
They wash their hair (and dry it and curl it).
She picks up the house,
They pick up her spirits when she sees their beautiful smiles...
