Evie & sharing at the right time

Evie doesn't listen. I yell at her, constantly, repeating myself endlessly hoping something will eventually seep in. She retains little due to not paying attention and she talks loudly...constantly.

Just when I thought all hope was lost on her (the frustrations I have had with her lately seem to be reaching a crescendo), she demonstrated how sweet she is. She sought me out, in my bedroom, and handed me a green colored Mike & Ike candy from the small bowl I gave her after dinner. She shared her favorite (on her own accord), smiled and walked off just at the best moment possible. Not all hope is lost...
