Just, why are you crying?
But if you don’t think Wendy was saying it that way for any other reason than “boy, whose name I don’t know”, don’t change it on my account

That’s exactly what I think is happening, but it’s clear that you aren’t the only one I’m affecting. And I wondered if JM Barrie was someone acceptable to quote.
And, as the person crying now…
It’s because I want it to be okay to like pre 2020 works of art
I want it to be okay to be me either on the internet or in person
And I want to be able to do any one thing right, and I can’t figure out how.

Mum was reading a book, got to the page with the picture of happy dogs and she made all their bark noises, then she turned the page. Can you believe it? She didn’t stay on the best page ever, she just kept going

It wasn’t wrong. It is ok 
What is clear to one person is ambiguous to another - interpretation of tone and art is hard! I was thinking of how thoughtful you are by choosing to be flexible to accommodate others interpretations.
We have all been there in the rawness, my friend, especially on corrections that were unintended. You are good.

He is crying because dada took him out of his booster seat and not mama. We have offered to put him back. This was not received well. 🤷

“I’m pretty sure I know how to roll over, but I can’t remember exactly how it work so I’m stuck in this d*** tummy time.”
And
“OMG I’M SO HUNGRY AND YOU’RE NEVER GOING TO FEED ME AGAIN…oh wait the food source is literally still in my mouth, my bad.”

She stood on the pastry brush and then wasn’t able to pick up the brush because she was standing on it.

Because he wants a dada hug and he wants to stand on the sink and he wants to sit on the potty and he doesn’t want to sit on the potty and he doesn’t want his toys and he wants his toys back and he wants a mama hug and he wants to be dried and he wants more bath.
