On the way home from preschool Tuesday, Cole kept saying, “Beyah (Bella) hurt my feewings at weecess.”
Hours later… her emotional pain was still raw “Beyah (Bella) hurt my feewings at weecess.”
And later still, with a pouty lower lip Cole retold the story of her feelings getting hurt at recess. At one point she held her head in her hands as she held back tears.
Now, Cole and Bella ADORE one another… and both are pretty strong-headed. No… VERY strong-headed. Also, they are the cutest 3 year-old girls… impossibly adorable separately - so imagine the two darlings togther. Also, they screech. And Mrs. Cindy. Poor Mrs. Cindy. She is saint.
When I took Cole to school yesterday morning, Bella ran up to her and said, “HI LUCY GIVE ME A HUG!” Cole did. Then Bella said, “I’m sorry I hurt your feewings on the teet-totter yesterday.” Cole said, “I forgive you.” And more hugging…
I asked Mrs. Cindy, “What happened yesterday between Bella and Cole?”
Bella didn’t push Cole. Bella didn’t grab a toy from Cole. Bella didn’t spit, kick or taunt with a “Neener, neener!”
Bella just didn’t want to play on the teeter-totter.
But Cole, in all her control issues took Bella’s desire to NOT TEETER-TOTTER as a personal offense. SO personal it lasted all day, and even yesterday she said, “Beyah hurt my feewings at weecess yesowday.”
I think we have some drama on our hands… good thing she’s so cute.
