She looks about 2.5 years old. She’s got her hair in 2 piggy tails with purple bobbles, a stripped dress on and a frown that could turn a smile 🙂 upside down 😦
It’s Saturday morning and this little Miss cutey woke up with her grumpy pants/dress ON!!
As she stomps down the Main street of Mornington at 8:36am with her parents trailing behind her; ready to respond to anyone of her cries or tantrums, she owns her grumpiness without an ounce of guilt or shame. She’s just shitty and I’m guessing she doesn’t know why, and nor do her supportive parents?!
I watch this scene unfold as I grab a quick coffee from the take away window at my local café, and standing next to me is another local who I smile and say hi to most days. Her name is unknown to me, but her bright cheery face I never forget.
She’s also watching Miss Cutey’s tantrum unfold and said’s ‘I know how she’s feeling, I woke up fairly grumpy this morning also’’! As I laugh out loud at what’s she’s honestly shared I sheepishly admit… ‘No way- me too! For no reason at all?’ .
We both owned and laughed at how moody we were just like Miss Cutey, finished our coffees and as my local friend walks away she wisely whispers… ‘I think we all just need a good nap today, enjoy’!
Simple hey… so true… so doable (even a rest) and it seems to make a world of difference- no matter what age you are!
Enjoy your version of a simple rest today- even if you don’t have your grumpy pants on- early intervention I say!
