Babes in Arms
While at Target earlier this week, we spotted another inappropriately old girl carrying around a realistic babydoll. We realized that both she and the girl at the beach are probably doing those "what it's like to take care of a baby" school projects!
Out of the Mouths of Babes
I don't remember exactly what Shrike said to our 7-year-old niece, but it was something smart-ass and untrue, I'm sure, and it prompted the following conversation:Niece: Is Aunt Shrike kidding?
Whozat: Yes, she's kidding. She's always kidding. Don't believe anything she says.
Niece (stricken): So, then it's not true when she says she loves me?
Shrike: Oh, no honey, you can take that one to the bank.
Niece (with evil grin): I knew that'd getcha!
I'm just your typical lesbian who met, fell in love with and moved half way across the country to be with the woman of my dreams, writing about life, love and parenting. We're a proud attachment parenting family, raising the most amazing little girl ever!

Babes
Just a couple of quick stories, to follow up on our beach trip last weekend.
On the Babes in Arms~ A realistic baby? All I got back in the 80's was a 5 lb bag of sugar I named Samantha. I felt like an ass toting that thing around.
ReplyDeleteSounds like y'alls niece is a pretty smart cookie!

ReplyDeleteI had wondered about that...
She is smarter than her own good and our own good too. I see trouble ahead. And totally boycrazy too. At the tender age of 7.
ReplyDeleteSeven, hell - She was boy-crazy at five!
