Here You Go!
Audrey and I snuggled in bed this morning. She brought along her lovey, the corner of which is soggy from her sucking and chewing. She pulled it out of her mouth as offered it to me, "here you go!"
"Uh, no thanks."
"It's 'licious!"
"I'm sure it is."
"Uh, no thanks."
"It's 'licious!"
"I'm sure it is."

Letter of the Day | J j
Today's letter is J.
J is for:
Jet
Jenny
Jump
Juggle
Jumping Jack
Jam
Jeep
Garrett got distracted while keeping score of the J words (he writes a J for each word and whoever has the most Js at the end wins). He decided to make a Jet by folding his score card - which is made of stiff and difficult to fold card stock. Apparently I asked him to come back and eat breakfast at a critical point in the folding.
"Garrett, please come back to the table and finish breakfast."
"UGH! (fumbles his folding) You distracted me from my jet!"
"I'm sorry, please come back to the table."
"Mom! You keep messing me up with your voice!"

On the pain and suffering of a scraped elbow:
"I think I shouldn't go to school for a week"

Family Jewels
If you know me, you know that I don't believe in teaching kids euphemisms for their body parts; it's anatomy, not some mysterious who-ha, tee-tee, wee-wee or pee-pee.
Lately Audrey has been exploring while sitting on the potty and asking, "what's that called?"
I respond, "vagina" in the same plain-spoken way I talk to her brother about his body.
She's been repeating it back to me but for some reason it comes out as "my diamond."
I've continued to say it correctly but I think she's adopted this title; it's been a few weeks.
Oddly, I'm ok with that.

Ransom Note
A ransom note will be coming to you shortly; I'm being held hostage in the bathroom.
After lying down for 45 minutes Audrey announced that she needed to poop, so here we are. The thing is, she's not pooping and she refuses to get off the pot.

Postage Required
Garrett said he was going to draw a letter. I asked which one, then he drew an envelope...

Bringing.
These are the things she must bring along; skateboard (i.e. large plastic cleaver), ladybug mask, purse, lovey, blanket. And, no, she doesn't want help.
