Adelaide
Super Duper Extra Cold
Super duper extra cold!
A lei has flowers.
Mommy: So, Adelaide, what’s this outfit you’re wearing in this picture?
Adelaide: Well, I have a towel around, and it’s a dress!
Mommy: And is that a flower crown?
Adelaide: No, it’s a lei! A lei has flowers.
Keeping time…
Mommy: OK, time to go! Let’s get in the car!
Adelaide: But I still need to brush my teeth!
Mommy: Well, you’ll just have to do it when we get home — we don’t have time right now.
Adelaide: I have time! I store it in my forehead, and I share it with everyone.
Aaand, she’s back.
Our girl is back, and I’m so glad.
Now the only trouble will be getting her to go to bed after laying down all day. At the moment, she’s playing the ukulele and leading us in a Pirates of the Carribean singalong.
Sick day
Little miss is sick. She just wanted to lay on the floor with her sick bowl. I may not be the most empathetic person on a daily basis, but when my kids are sick, I think I might feel worse than they do. But I try to stay positive so they don’t feel worse than necessary. Tough stuff.
Jungle boogie
Friday night street fair. Adelaide says, “Mommy, what’s making that monkey sound?”
I hear a crashing sound coming from the garage…
Mommy: Adelaide? Are you OK in there?
Adelaide: Yes!
Mommy: What are you doing?
Adelaide: Nothing, now.
Talk like an Egyptian…
That’s Rubye, and that’s Shreya, and that’s a sarcophagus!
Adelaide in the bathtub…
Adelaide: Mommy! I’m trying to walk on water.
Mommy: Yeah? And how is that going?
Adelaide: Um, hard.
