Apple Pie

In a parking lot, reviewing a list of retailers that accept Apple Pay, I commented on this aloud.

Pulling away, she commented, “Didn’t they have Apple Pie?”.

Heaven is…

“Mom”, says Abby out of the blue, “maybe Mac’s not in heaven…”

## pause ##

“…maybe he’s in Florida.” 🙂

The Dark Side

From the sunny school departure, we embark upon an intersection of change.

As we turn the corner, pow, the clouds in front of us define grey and ominous.

Without hesitation I hear from the back, “We’re entering the dark side!”

I knew at that point what I’d be writing in my blog tonight.

Life Lessons

“I went poopy on the potty!”.

She’s corrected, “You went messy on the potty,” dear. That’s the nice way to say it.

“That’s the nerdy way to say it Grandma!!”

(I couldn’t have laughed harder)

 

Humor

My text tonight:

I was just telling Abby to change into her pajamas; she wasn’t happy so she starting crying…not a huge ordeal; tired from a long day. But…super funny…I handed her the pajama top, telling her to change into it…she stopped and said frankly, “one minute, I need to finish crying”. 🙂

Obedience

Sit.

Stay.

Park-it.

Yes, park-it.

Quality obedience training for Archie that Abby has so efficiently learned.

Yesterday, from across the room, Abby practiced this command by pointing to the ground and firmly demanding I park-it.

I’m quite certain I didn’t hide well my appreciation for the humor.

Car Conversation

Literally, our conversation went like this (verbatim)…

Abby: “Thank you, mama. Thank you for school.”

Mommy: “Thank you for being such a good girl.”

Abby: “…and so crazy!”

Mommy: “Thank you for being so smart.”

Abby: “…and so silly!”

Mommy: “Thank you for being so cute.”

That would be good

We say it a lot…”That would be good.”

Let’s go to the park. “That would be good.”

Let’s go to Target. “That would be good.”

Let’s go see Grandma. “That would be good.”

Let’s go home and make dinner. “Snack first,” she says.

“That would be good, for me!”

Logic not to be argued with.

Lucky Cow

“You’re a lucky duck”, says grandma with enthusiasm.

“Lucky cow!,” replies Abby.

I guess that makes me a Lucky Cow; I have such a wonderful daughter (clearly having a bit of trouble taking off her pajama top this morning).

Where are the geese going?

Geese walking slowly in front of traffic.

When asked where they were going…Abby answered immediately, “Shopping at Costco”!
