So Where Did She Learn About Plastic Surgery?

My daughter is playing ‘operation’ with her doll right now. She says it’s to make her more ‘beautifuller’ and that operation is the royal word for that. It’s really interesting listening to the stream of consciousness going on.

I Don’t Want You to Vote!

I was walking my daughter home from school today, and she asked me if there would be school tomorrow. Her teacher had told her about how she was going to vote for President tomorrow.

I reassured her that yes, school would continue as usual, since voting only takes a little time. I added that I would be voting while she was at school.

“Mommy, I don’t want you to vote,” was her reply.

“Why not?”

She looked away. “I don’t want you to pick me as President.”

Little Again

contributed by Rochelle

My friend and I were walking home from dropping our older kids off at school when she mentioned it was her son’s birthday. He has apparently decided that he’s younger now because he has to drop the “and a half” from his age.

Would that it were so easy!

You Need WHAT?

My son doesn’t talk too clearly yet, and like a lot of toddlers uses some interesting word choices. Such as this morning’s conversation:

Him: “Me need hoo ker.”

Me: “You need what?”

Him: “Me need hookER!”

It took me a minute to realize that last night he had been playing with one of those punching bag balloons and using it to hook onto things, driving his sister nuts. This, of course, was his “hooker”.

Good mom that I am, of course, I asked him if there was something I needed to know.

edited to add:

He’s still at it, but now the “hooker” is an 8 ft long flexible pencil he got for Christmas. I just about lost it when my husband was coiling up the pencil and my son started going on about “Daddy tie up me hooker!”
