Disobeying the Little Rules
Anonymous Cuddly Cupcake #139 · General Confessions
So yeah, I've been this little for a while now. It's fun and playful, but also a bit of a challenge at times when you have to follow some pretty strict rules. My big always keeps things interesting though. I'll cut to the chase - last night, I wasn't supposed to eat any more chocolate after dinner. We'd been talking about it all day, because my blood sugar gets low and eating too much sugary stuff isn't good for me right now. But when we got home and everything was cooling down from our big outing, and there were these delicious-looking dark chocolates on the counter... I couldn't help myself. I know better though - I knew exactly what would happen if I ate one of those things without permission. But I just grabbed a bar and popped it into my mouth. It was so good! Then I went straight up to bed like nothing happened, but I could tell the moment big noticed because she stopped me right outside my door. We had a talk about it. She wasn't happy at all - in fact, she gave me a time-out which felt pretty rough for what I did. But now here's where I feel funny: there was no need to be so strict with this little one. It was just some chocolate! Now I'm feeling really guilty. I guess sometimes when you're little it's hard not to test the boundaries, but that doesn't mean breaking them is okay. My big taught me a lesson though, and now I have to make sure it won't happen again.
