I Swear I Showered

Setting the stage: This conversation occurred as I entered Kate’s room this morning. They were the first words out of her mouth after I woke her up.

KATE: We aren’t going anywhere?
ME: Yes we are. You get to go and play with the kids today.
KATE: I don’t want to. I want to stay home with you.
ME: I’m not staying home. I’ve got to go to stinking work.
KATE: I’ll help you take a shower mommy.
ME: What??? I already took my shower.
KATE: But you can’t go to work stinky!

Perhaps it's dyslexic Wednesday (get it? someone?). I shouldn't give her that hard of a time. My brain doesn't even function that well until at least after my second cup of coffee.

Hear you on the second cup of coffee thing.

I was so tired at work last night I drank two cups at 9pm....(sooo stupid.)....and couldn't shut my eyes until 4am....(really stupid)

Ha!

I'm just waiting for Chickie to be old enough to say things like, "Your breath stinks, Mommy." I know it's coming. I mean, she already comments on the stinkiness of "toots." Not that I EVER do that, mind you.

Too funny! I only work in the office two days a week and my girl HATES those two days, she gets so sad :(

She's too much of a smarty for her own good. You just need to train her to save it until mommy's awake in the morning.

Kids say the darndest things!
As a primary school teacher, I hear it all. One example:

At a bully presentation our school held the other day, the kids were asked if they knew what a bully was. One kid pipes up so matter-of-factly with:
"A bully is someone who is mean and kicks you in the privacy."

Hilarity is what gets me through the day. :)
