Devil on the rise

Two firsts today. Neither very good.
1. My daughter’s preschool teacher informed us that our normally angelic child misbehaved today for the first time. She yelled at her teachers and classmates and was non-compliant.

She is remarkable verbal, they say, but today she used those words for no good.

I fear that my genes are finally asserting themselves.

2. Clara also told me to put down the seat on the toilet after I emerged from the bathroom.

“Close the potty!  Close the potty!” she shouted.

She’s only two years old and she’s already nagging me.
