Guru El

Wednesday night a gardening client whom I frankly don't like, called and was frustrated with me. I share her sentiments, though kinda in reverse.

Thursday morning, Ellie asked me why I had made that sound. That sound being a sigh. I told her I had a lot to do. "Like when you run around and you have one thing and then another thing?" Yes, I told her, like that.

"You need to go in your room and repeat your favorite word. Your favorite word is 'gardening' right Mama?"

"Not this morning. My favorite word is Ellie. Let's take the morning off and go to the studio instead of going to school."

"Really, Mama?"

"Yup."

So we did. I cleaned the studio while Ellie un-cleaned. Yin and Yang. A perfect morning.
