Kids Say the Darnedest Things

MAC is changing every day it seems. It doesn't feel like all that long ago that we were coming home from the hospital with her. As we go through the same milestones with MMC, it is hard to remember that MAC is just three years old and not a full-fledged adult.



One of the fun things to watch is when she gets to thinking about something and the wheels in her head start turning. The words that her mind creates are usually good for a long laugh! Here are some recent examples:



"Mommy, Nana and I rode on the alligator!" (This would be the ELEVATOR at church!)



"Sleeping Beauty is very sad because she poked her finger on the steering wheel." (Pricked her finger on the SPINNING wheel is more accurate)

"I'm so sad."
"Why are you sad, MAC?"
"Because I left my heart in Homa-homa." (This is how she pronounces OKLAHOMA, where her Granny and Poppa live)



But the most classic case of manipulation is when she knows there are consequences coming. She looks me in the eye and says "But I just love you beary much, Mommy!"



I've never been so good at laughing without it showing!

That is very cute...It is hard to believe that they are growing up so fast...I can't believe that it's almost been a year since I graduated AIT...time flies when you're having fun I suppose...

If by 'suck at life' you mean, 'are the coolest human being alive and you have a brother that wishes he was as funny as you but none of them will ever attain such a high status especially Chris who is currently ranked at the second to last funniest in the family...next to Corey...the Mexican' then yes, I suck at life...
