Reenacting When Harry Met Sally...

There is a scene in When Harry Met Sally where Sally makes it well known that she is upset with Harry by being extra pleasant to everyone around her, while she blatantly ignores Harry.  I often feel this way with Lotta lately.  For example, she made me a Valentine's card that said, "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, I like you".  Then, she made a Valentine's card for Thom proclaiming her love for him.  Today, she was trying to explain something to me and immediately started shouted to indicate how unintelligent she finds me.  Then Thom asked a question and she immediately reverted to, "Yes, Daddy?"

The thought came to me the other night that Lotta NEEDS more hugs.  She is making it challenging for me to issue the more hugs that she needs.  Or maybe I need them.  I just didn't think the being angry getting off the bus at merely seeing my face would begin at SEVEN.  I thought I had a few more years of love.

Fortunately, the more Lotta becomes hateful, the more Zibbi becomes loving.  The other morning she told me, "I just LOVE you SO much."  She's decided she loves me so much that she wants to marry me (the rule is, if you kiss on the lips, you are married...)
