Conversations with a toddler and preschooler cont.

Arriving at church

Jolene not getting out of the car: "I can't walk to church my feet are weary."

Me: "Jolene we are about 10 feet away, I think you can manage."

Jolene's body suddenly liquefies.  We somehow manage to bottle her up and carry her into church.




Adele at the dinner table.

Adele: " Mom you are an apple, Jolene is a cake, I'm a brownie, Daddy is a strawberry and Gideon is a sandwich.

Me:" Hmmm, that is interesting. Why are you a brownie?"

Adele: "I don't know, I just am"




Adele stubs her little toe on the door. The little toe has a very, very tiny cut which is bleeding.

Adele: *crying very hard* "I will never walk again!!"




Gideon: "Whe Daddee? Daddeeeeeee?"

Gideon is on our bed watching Brandon change out of his work clothes. Note: this happens every evening

Gideon: "Daa da daa da daa daaaa!"  Translation #1: "Nan a nan a nan ahh!" Translation #2 : "You can't get me!"
