My daughter (4) turns the aisle into her dancing stage, every time we’re at the store. People usually smile—until last time. An older woman gave us a nasty look and said, “Your mom should teach you some manners.” My daughter calmly replied, “Tell your husband.”
Now, let me back up and say—my kid isn’t what you’d call “shy.” Zariah has always been full of energy and imagination. When she hears music, her body just moves. Whether it’s the background speaker at CVS or a jingle on someone’s ringtone, she’s twirling.
I never wanted to squash that out of her. The world will dim your light soon enough—why would I start early?
