Dear Little Ones,
As your parents, we often find ourselves focused on teaching you essential safety rules—like looking both ways before crossing the street or avoiding hot surfaces and strange animals. Yet, amidst these crucial lessons, there are some equally important truths that we might overlook. While they may not seem as urgent, they are vital for your happiness and well-being. I often assume you understand these concepts, but based on your reactions, it appears I need to clarify a few things:
- Naps are your friends.
Seriously, you don’t need to resist nap time; you should actually welcome it! Naps are fantastic! When someone suggests you cozy up in your bed during the day for a little shut-eye, please, for the love of all things wonderful, take advantage of it. You’re missing out on a treasure by fighting it as if you’re going to miss out on a grand holiday. Once you realize that guilt-free naps are a privilege, perhaps you’ll respond to the idea with more enthusiasm instead of the dramatic meltdowns! - Grooming is a good thing.
I know you put up quite the fight when I try to clip your nails or give you a bath, but let’s face it—these are perks! Adults pay good money for manicures, haircuts, and pampering. You have a free stylist and personal beautician right at home, ready to help you look your best. So, instead of squirming and complaining, relish in the fact you’re saving money and time! - Your laundry is a wonder.
You toss your dirty clothes in the hamper, and like magic, they reappear clean and folded. Do you have any idea how much work that involves? Your very own laundry service is operating right under your roof! And the outfits that magically appear for you each day? Consider how simple life is when someone else coordinates your wardrobe. You should appreciate this luxury rather than grumble about it. - You have a personal chef.
Think about it: you don’t have to worry about grocery shopping, meal planning, or cooking. All you need to do is show up at the table, and voila! There’s a meal ready for you. Not only that, but I even blow on your food to make sure it’s cool enough to eat! This level of service is something many people wish they had, so keep that in mind next time you’re turning your nose up at what’s served. - Transportation is a breeze.
When was the last time you had to navigate through traffic or search for parking? Oh right, never! You can sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride—whether that’s listening to music or daydreaming out the window. Your chauffeur handles all the stress, and you don’t even have to tip. Lucky you!
I share this with you, hoping to inspire gratitude for the conveniences you enjoy daily. You have access to a laundry service, a chef, a driver, and someone who encourages you to nap! Remember, not everyone is so fortunate. Appreciate what you have now, before it’s gone.
