Day 29: I'm grateful that my kids are so gosh darn entertaining! It comes in especially handy when there home from school and over excited for several days in succession.
Me: Did you have a super day Riley? Roo:Yes! Me: What did you do? Roo: I did everything you can think of! Me: You did? Did you sing a song? Roo: Yes. But I didn't sing TURKEY songs I sang "Who's Here Today" Me: Oh, was everyone at school today? Roo: Yes Me: That's good! Roo: Why? Me: I like your school friends. They're all nice. Roo: Um, no. They're not. Me: They're not? Who isn't nice? Roo: (thinking) All of them sometimes, but when they look into the future they're all nice.
While painting turkey plates: Me: Here's brown Riley Roo: Oh, for the turkey? Me: Yes Roo: For the live turkey? Because live turkeys are brown. Me: Um, yes. Roo: And pink for the dead ones. (laughter) We did not make any dead turkeys if you're wondering.
Me: Tonight we're going to toast S'mores! (later that day) Roo: (Obviously haven gotten her wires crossed) Mom, When are we going to smoke cigarettes? Me: What?!? You mean, make S'mores? Roo: Yeah, is it time? Me: Not yet. (Even later that day) Roo: Mom, When are we going to smoke cigarettes? Me: Make S'mores, honey Roo: Yeah, is it time? Me: Not yet. (That night) Roo: We're going to smoke cigarettes! Me: Make S'mores, honey! Roo: Yeah!
In Home Depot Roo and I got separated from Mike and Isaac. Me: Riley, do you see Daddy? Roo: Um...no Me: Me either...hmmm...Maybe he went to the Christmas lights Roo: No, I know where he is! Me: (Looking around) Where? Roo: (without hesitation) He got arrested by an old guy, Me: (laughing) I don't think so Roo: Yeah, he got arrested by Old Nick
Me: Isaac, check the living room and see if there are any toys that need to be put away Isaac: It looks like Santa came early. There's a stocking full of toys in here. Me: Oh, I gave Riley an extra one to play with. Just set it in her room. Roo: Yeah, Santa had to come early. He had to come to early because he got fired and he needed to tell us!
