PR and I were holding hands as usual while I was singing The Rainbow Connection to her tonight. Then we got to talking and it went something like this… PR: “Where’s your ring hand, Mama?” Me: “You’re holding it, silly!” PR: “Oh yeah, here it is. Did Daddy give you this ring at the wedding?”…
PR and I had a nice little conversation last night after her bath. Here’s how it went: PR: “LB’s not a big girl yet because she doesn’t wear big girl underwear. She’s still a baby.” Me: “She’s not as big as you, but she’s not a baby anymore.” PR: “Wouldn’t it be so cute and…
This is like, a serious question. I was just washing my face and getting ready for bed in the bathroom with my cat who loves to hang out in the tub anytime he can. (Is this normal? My cats both love to lay in the tub!) When I was done I looked at him, holding the…
I’ve been really tired lately. Most likely because I’ve been power-watching The Walking Dead for the past two weeks which involves some pretty late nights. But I’m committed to catching up, you know? I just keep telling myself I’m exhausted because work is crazier than usual and when I’m not at work, I’m wrangling a…
Princess Rapunzel. I call her that because she is obsessed with Rapunzel. She loves everything about Rapunzel and actually wants to be her. She even wears her Rapunzel dress once a week and would wear it more if I let her. She loves her long hair and I have to admit, I do too. I…
Princess Rapunzel: “What’s that thing that you have with the tiny beads on it?’ Me: “Oh, the dreamcatcher?” PR: “Yeah the dreamcatcher.” Me: “It’s for good dreams. I got one for you too.” PR: “You got one for me too? For my room? Will it catch my dreams?” Me: “It stops any nightmares from getting…
Me: “Little Boo, are you gonna come to the grocery store with me?” LB: “Yeah, I come too! I help!” Me: “What should we buy today? Can you ask Daddy what he wants for dinner?” LB: “I want cake!” Me: “You want cake? We can’t have cake for dinner. Can you ask Daddy what he…
“Little Boo, don’t kick the cat!! That’s NOT nice” This is what I heard the Original Boo saying very sternly to Little Boo in the other room. I was in the kitchen; the only person with enough patience to sit through Princess Rapunzel’s incredibly drawn out dinnertime. It’s amazing how much more slowly you eat…
I wish that I could write down or remember everything that Princess Rapunzel says. The things that she says make me laugh every day. Here are a few recent faves from her. Sometimes she is a bit too literal: Little Boo: “Cut it out!” Princess Rapunzel: “I can’t cut it out. I don’t have scissors.…
Here are a few recent gems, courtesy of Princess Rapunzel (3 years old): My leg hurts, Mommy. It will feel better if you put essential oils on it. I lost my power. Isn’t that that a tragedy? Isn’t that terrible? I lost my power and now I can’t fly. Maybe my bed took my power.…
