Sister/Friend
Oh, the games that these girls play….. Avery and Ally have several “games” that they play and I don’t want to forget them, so I’m recording them here….
1. “Sister”
In this game, they are obviously, sisters. They pretend to be older, teenagers (Lord, help me) and have cell phones and such.
2. “Friend”
Here, they are friends and play/pretend that they are inviting each other over to play. Many nights, when called to dinner, they come and introduce me to “Hannah” or “Mallory” and ask if she can stay and eat. On these nights, “Hannah” and “Mallory” will only respond to such names…so calling Ally to brush her teeth is pointless! Call “MALLORY!” and she comes a runnin’!
3. “Honey”
This interaction is between a mom and her “honey.” For the record, I don’t, now have I ever, called Jay “honey.” Anyway, someone is the “honey” and they always have lots of babies and introduce me to the other one as, “this is my honey.” This one really cracks me up!
Out of a Mama’s mouth…..
MckMama blog post today had me laughing so hard I cried, so I decided to do one of my own…so here goes:
Things you might hear at my house that only a mama would understand….
“No, you may not put her in the dryer! I KNOW she fits, but dryers are NOT the place for little girls!”
“No you will probably not be getting a cell phone when you’re 10. Nope, not 11. Maybe when you’re 16. yes, that is “forever” away.
“Can someone please tell me why there are peanuts in the DVD player?!”
“I am going to get the spoon.”
“Yes, mama is bleeding, yes I am fine. No I do not need a band-aid. You have to bleed to have a baby. No, you will not for a long time. No I do not need help with this. Could you leave the bathroom and give mama some privacy please?”
“No, you cannot get pregnant before you are married. No you do not get pregnant the DAY you get married.”
“PLEASE stop coloring on your sister, crayons are for paper”
So what is said at YOUR house???
