I'm about to head out but I just wanted to write out this dialogue that Aixah and I just had.
Mami, are you happy?"
Me, slumped on the couch looking miserable, "No, mami's sad."
"You're sad? What's wrong, mami?"
"My stomach hurts." In reality, I'm having a little anxiety attack over having baby #2. My stress tends to reflect on some very uncomfortable stomach cramps.
"Oh don't worry, mami," a look of concern washes over her face like no other and she proceeds to give me a belly rub. Then her eyes light up and she says, "band-aid."
You see, my daughter's a genius, and she thinks that a band-aid takes away all pain. So off she goes in search of a band-aid. She comes back with diaper rash cream and, very gently, rubs it over my belly. "You're OK, mami."
