CLARA AND HER SPECIAL WORDS... CLARA, SEMPRE ESPECIAL!!

Clara came out today with a game. She was a baby and so she was all day long. By the end of the day I couldn't stand any fake cries or tantrums from "baby Clara". So I told her I didn't want that game anymore. I probably said that a million times and nothing changed and of course I got mad! Then I felt sooooo bad for that because she said the most beautiful thing that I've heard ever: "But mom I am the baby that God chose!" Then I asked: "Chose for what?" Clara: "Chose for you!"
Just to clarify that is the sentence we told her how the babies come to the parents. When I got pregnant of Gabriel she wanted a girl and was hard to tell her she will have a baby brother so we told her that is not us who chooses the gender of the baby that we'll have but God, because He knows better. I don't need to say that tears ran, hun!!

Clara hoje brincou o dia inteiro de bebe. Ela era o bebe. Eu nao aguentava mais "aquele bebe" fingindo chorar, de birras e... o dia inteiro no meu ouvido entao pedi para parar de fingir que era bebe e comecar a brincar de ser mocinha. Devo ter falado isso milhoes de vezes, mas nada adiantou. Claro que fiquei brava!! Mas logo depois me senti pessima, pois ela veio com a frase que me desmontou. MAS MAMAE EU SOU O BEBE QUE DEUS ESCOLHEU. Dai perguntei: ESCOLHEU PRA QUE? Clara: PARA VOCE!
So pra clarear um pouco, isso foi o que falamos pra ela quando engravidamos do Gabriel. Ela queria muito uma irmanzinha e nos nao tinhamos como conforta-la sabendo que estavamos esperando um outro menino. Dai dissemos a ela que quem escolhe o sexo do bebe e' o Papai do Ceu, pois Ele sabe melhor das coisas que nos. Nem preciso falar que chorei com isso ne'?!
