There are two ways one can look at this. Today is karate day, but Agent decided to stay home while Moon and I went out. The bank finally got their computers fixed, so I got my money and was tending to bills when I received an uncharacteristic voice call from Agent.
One way to look at what happened next is to moan about 'why!?' "Haven't we suffered enough!!!!"
I decided that there was a bright side.
1. Normally, Agent would have gone with us to town, but she stayed home.
2. Normally, when she stays home, she sleeps or sinks her full attention into video games.
3. Normally, when a problem seems insurmountable, she gives up.
Today, she noticed that water was leaking from the laundry room.
1. She got a towel and made a dam for the water.
2. She called me, and tried to follow my instructions to turn off the water main.
3. She mopped until she almost puked.
I am proud of my little sweetie. She is growing up just fine.
Wow! I'm sorry to hear about the added work with the water leak - water leaks are TEH worst! *hugs*
ReplyDeleteAgent Em acted like a true warrior, using thought and skill. Kudos to her and kudos to you for raising her to think and act on her own =)
