SETTING: Kitchen table. Annelie and I are working. I have my coffee and the morning pages, and Annelie is enlightening me with her observations about life as she studies shapes in her workbook.
ANNELIE: Mom, you have a mole on your face.
ME: Yup, I do.
ANNELIE: Only old ladies have moles.
ME: I've had mine since I was a little girl.
ANNELIE: Well, I only see old ladies with moles. And hippos.
ME: Hippos?
ANNELIE: Yeah. See? This hippo has moles, too.
ANNELIE: See that? The hippo has three moles! Only old ladies and hippos have moles like you.

ReplyDeleteAngela @ The Bookshelf Muse
your kids are too cute :)
ReplyDeleteoh my, the things kids say! crack me up:)
ReplyDeleteI'm lucky that Merrick has one on his head and has since he was a wee babe and Amelia has one on the back of her leg and near her ear. Tell Annelie that so she lets go of the old lady thing :) If it makes you feel any better Amelia told me I had a squishy belly like Santa...so at least you don't have THAT going for you!
ReplyDeleteLol! That's a good one...my oldest, now thankfully knows what they are called but he used to tell people that they had a rice krispie stuck to their face! Kids!!
ReplyDeletehaha gotta love 'em! it's ok when they say things like this to us...not so great when they say it to others!
