Weird
You know what’s weird? It’s weird how when you sit on something that’s plastic…and you are heavier than that thing…it’s weird how it turns white. Why is that?
What did you break?
Nothing.
Car Talk
“Now I’m going to marry the wheels to the chassis.”
Time for Cuddles
Joseph climbed into my lap and said, “Even a Joseph on a mission has to stop for some cuddles!”
When I Grow Up
Me: Maddie, what do you think you might want to be when you grow up?
Maddie: A mommy. Like you.
Me: Really? That’d be great. Do you think it’s easy or hard to be a mommy?
Maddie: Hard.
Me: What will you do when you’re a mommy?
Maddie: I’ll do like you do and make dinner…for my little girl like you make dinner for me.
Whiskers
Me: Maddie, what did you do with grandpa this morning?
Maddie: Grandpa shaved off his wood sticks. Daddy has wood sticks too–coming out of his face.
Tooth Concerns
Me: Oh, my tooth hurts.
Maddie (hesitantly): Do you want me to kiss it?
Me: Thanks, Mads, but maybe you could kiss my cheek instead.
Maddie (relieved): ok.
(Later that day.)
Noah: Mommy got her tooth pulled.
Maddie: Does she still have a tongue? She needs her teeth to eat with!
(She came home afraid to approach me but very interested to see the pulled tooth, which of course I brought home to show the kids. I’ll spare you the photo of that!)
Eyebrow Troubles
M: “This hat makes my eyebrows sweaty.”
My Neck
J: “Hey! My neck is in control of my head!”
Lunch Bag Backup
Me: Joseph, I can’t find your lunch bag. Will this be okay?
J: Well. It is weird. But it’ll be fine, mom.
Shhhh.
J: What’s this say?
Me: It’s for a silent auction. Yet another school fundraiser.
J: An auction where you aren’t allowed to talk??
