You can not give up now mama !

It is about dark.

Vicktoria is getting desperate. She had been begging me to help her with her bike ride for at least two hours. I promised her - just one time around the neighbourhood, but i need to finish the brick border of this flowerbed. Now - she was sitting right next to me and watches every single movement, i make, impatiently. Time to time she will look around and will sob - "Mama, is getting dark. You do your best to finish this - right?"

- "Yes, my sweetheart" - I'll say between my teeth. You see - "I'm fighting teeth and nails to finish the job. I need to plant and water this flowers before they die". She looks at me suspiciously - "I see she is digging with her hands, but what the teeth part was about? "- i think i can hear her thoughts.

I'm getting desperate too. Having her around watching me and watching growing dark and feeling her desperation is really frustrating to me. Finally i gave up . I just can not stand to to see her like that.

-"Do you know Vicky..."

-"Do you give up mama?"- she immediately feel it. God this child feels me so well. It is scary. "Let me rub you back. Does it feel good? You know you can not give up. There is just a little bit left to finish the job - you can not give up now!"

-"Yes sweetheart, that is wright, a Vicktorias mama should never give up". I hug her with admiration.

Where in a earth this child learn this from. Shouldn't be me - i have master degree of giving up. May be God send me another opportunity to learn this lesson - don't give up.
