One day my 5 year old niece, Azalea was fussing about sleeping with my sister in her bed. The conversation went like this :
Azalea : Mama, I wanna sleep in your bed with you.
WY : Zyzy, you are a big girl now. You have to learn to sleep on your own. The beautiful princesses all sleep on their own you know. Don't you wanna be like them?
Azalea : That's because they have no mummy to sleep with. I have YOU!
WY : *Paused for a while and trying to recall all the fairytales to see if what her girl said was true. She turned away and giggled. The rest is history.*
True enough most, if not all the princesses have no mummies in their fairytale lives. You wouldn't wanna sleep with your stepmother, would you? I salute the observation of this girl. Way to go Zyzy (that's what we call her).
