When Claire got up this morning Anne told her, "Your hair looks funny."
I braced for a meltdown. Claire doesn't deal well with comments like that. But instead she replied, "Not as funny as your face."
I almost cheered! This is a real breakthrough for her! But then an hour later Damon was saying her name wrong to make her mad and she started crying. I told her not to cry, but to say his name wrong back.
I hope the Lord will forgive me for teaching an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. I do plan to teach the higher law someday. I just don't think we're ready for it yet.
