We Go By My Mickey Mouse
The Girl stayed out too late and got herself grounded. That was hard to do since I was flexible in what time I expected her to be home. Unfortunately for her, she didn’t return when she said she would. Doing things that she says she’s going to do when she says that she’s going to do them seems to be a hard lesson for her. It wasn’t the time that she got back so much as the fact that she was late. Not being finished on time is not good when it comes to schoolwork or a job when she reaches the age when she has to work for a living. We don’t want to take her childhood away; but, the day will soon come when she asks for the car keys. And when that happens, we want to be comfortable that she’ll be home when scheduled and we won’t be worrying about what might have happened because she’s late.
P.S. for those of you who are younger, Mickey Mouse used to be a popular watch design for kids.
