Broken Heart

So, seriously, little kids say the funniest things!! I made pancakes this morning and usual I let the girls pick a shape that I try to imitate. Jensyn asked for a heart. I made the most perfect shaped heart for her. I must have flipped the pancake too soon and the edge of the heart broke off. Jensyn with much emotion, said "Mommy, you broke my heart!" (Talk about wanting to make me cry!) I told her that I could fix her heart and it would be perfect again. After watching the heart get repaired and looking carefully at it she said, "Mom, I don't want to have a broken heart today." It was one of those moments where I normally would tell her to eat it anyway. This time was different. I didn't want to serve her a broken heart. I made her a new one.

I hope that my little girls never have to go through I pain of a broken heart. I am sure that there will come a day when they will have one, I just hope that I can be the mom who can repair the broken heart, or else not even let it be served to them in the first place.
