So Sarah, perfect princess that she is, has a minor flaw.
Sarah is a nail-biter. She has had this problem since she was two, with fluctuations in intensity and frequency. We have tried EVERYTHING to help her stop, including fancy manicures and bribery of the worst sorts.
True conversation this week:
Me: "Sarah! PLEASE get your fingers away from your..."
Sarah: "I know, my mouth."
Me: "What in the world is it going to take to get you to stop? I will give you anything! What do you love best...besides a real, live pony for your bedroom?"
Sarah: "God."
(Different Mission. Definitely Accomplished.)
Me: "You can bite your fingernails."
I don't think it is supposed to go like that.
Oh my!!!!! So much like Nonna!!!!!!
