Coffee

The kids had been begging to have coffee.  I decided to squelch there little cries I would go ahead and let them have a sip or two....of BLACK coffee that is.  They were full of giggles but I could tell from how little disapeared from the glass that it was yucky.

After they "enjoyed" their coffee I doctored mine up with a pretty fair about of French Vanilla creamer and sugar.  Addilece asked to look in my cup.  When she did she declared:

"MOM!  We didn't want BLACK in our cups.  We wanted WHITE!"

Clean Up

Baby Girl had refused to help with our afternoon pick up.  I only let kids who help with pick up play in the front yard.  So, she was stuck inside with me.

Baby Girl: "Mom. Go outside?"
Me: "No, I let little girls who help with pick up time go outside and you did not."

Baby Girl runs over the couch.  Reaches under. Pulls out two dirty socks.  Then trots off.

A few minutes later:

Baby Girl: "Baby Girl picked up."

Ha ha.  Nice Try.

God Made It

The kids had discovered a worm.  Addilece was intent on smashing the thing with  a rock.

Me: Addilece, don't kill the worm.
Addilece: Why not?
Me: Because God made it and we don't want to kill it.

A few minutes pass....

Addilece: Mom why can't I smash it or cover it with a rock?
Me: Because God made it.
Addilece:  But God made the rock too!

Guess you can't argue with that logic.

She's not little.

Big Brother had been talking about one of the kids in his class.  Based on the name I thought I had figured out who it was.  She is a bit bigger of a kiddo.

Me: Is that a little girl?
Big Brother:  She's not little mommy.

Move Mom

I was sitting on Daddy's lap sideways.  Addilece came up to the side where my legs where and kissed Daddy on the cheek.  She did this again two more times.  Then she went to the other side where my back was.  She tugged on back....

"Move please mom."

Then she reached up and kissed that cheek.

Where Did THAT Come From?

While Addilece had been napping we transplanted a rose bush.  Addilece was a bit baffled by the new location.

Addilece: Daddy, is that a pokie bush?
Daddy: Yes.
Addilece:  Why did it grow?

Bed time.

We switch saying good night for the kids.  One night I do the boys and Daddy does the girls and the next night we switch. 

Daddy was talking to Baby Girl......

Daddy: I sing songs to little girls who get ready for bed with out an attitude.

Addilece: Actually, it's Mom's turn for the girls.
