Knots
In the next few weeks I’ll be more late than usual. I already have an excuse. My daughter has taught herself to knot shoelaces. She is very proud of it and wants to demonstrate it every day with the shoes she finds. Unfortunately, when I want to leave I have to untwine shoelaces that have been transformed into a big knot.
Children often do the same things as their parents. Some things they copy. Other things are innate. My mother can tell nice stories about my skills to make knots everywhere and in everything. Listen to the stories of your own childhood and you know how your children will be. How long will it take until my daughter has transformed the laundry in one big knot?
