Will this matter a year from now?

As I was growing up, my mom often reminded me of this important advice

"If it isn't going to matter 10 years from now, then it isn't something you need to flip out about today"

Or something like that.

Today Brian took Annie for a little Daddy/Daughter date and he was trying to explain this concept.

Brian: "So Annie, imagine if today was you birthday, and Daddy forgot your birthday.  That's awful, right??  But will it matter a year from now?"

Annie: "YES it will matter a year from now!!  It will be my birthday again and I'll be worrying that you forgot!!!"

Love that girl!
