A week or so ago I went to pick up Ali from school and she was a little irritated. I asked what was wrong or what happened and NO comment- the silent treatment all the way home. As we got home she didn't speak, didn't want to talk about her day and didn't want to leave the car. So I went inside with Cam and we rocked out to some music, dancing our hearts out trying to make her laugh. She just sat in the car and wanted nothing to do with me or Cam. Finally after locking and unlocking and trying to pry her out of the car i left her alone. I didn't realize that the locking and unlocking caused the car to permanently lock from the inside. She couldn't get out and I was done trying to get my 6 year old out of the car. I went inside only to hear loud SOBS from the garage. She was crying so hard because she was locked in the car. I got her out and tried to console her and she was not having any part of me. I realized this was a battle I didn't want a piece of. I left her alone to cry it out!!
After 15 minutes I went back in to check on her and she was still balling hysterically. I couldn't figure out what it was all about. Finally I got her calmed down to talk a little. She told me she just missed me so much at school that it was so hard. Then she told me a girl told her that school lasts another 4 months not 4 days. The class was doing a countdown to 100 days of being in school, and ali thought it was a countdown to the end of school. Well once i told her that the girl was right Ali cried harder and didn't want any cuddling with me. I went downstairs and hoped she would fall asleep because she obviously was just TIRED.
It was quiet for about 20 minutes and I thought she fell asleep when I heard little footsteps come down the stairs and Ali handed me this note.
I will translate:
Ali not AVAILABLE
Do not talk to me
Please- Thank You period.
If you want to talk to me then
give me fifteen dollars please
put it in this
I was laughing so hard as she was holding her little brothers old cast for me to deposit 15 dollars to talk to her. I asked her if I didn't have 15 dollars could I still talk to her, and she said NO!! It was pretty funny in the end, but enduring an hour of crying for no reason is one thing I am NEVER going to get used to. I don't remember being as emotional as my little Ali, but I am sure it is teaching me more patience!! Gotta love my little entrepenuer!!
