Friday Funny Stuff ~ Addie Style

I won’t even bore you with all of the crushing details of our incredibly insane life right now. Just the fact that I’m couldn’t even manage a bullet-list T&T Thursday this week can probably give you an idea of the mayhem around here.

But there is one conversation Addie and I had today that I decided I must sit down and document because it is just too, too good! So I decided it has been too long since we have done a Friday Funny Stuff entry – and here is one for you…

__________________________________________

We were on our way somewhere today and Ads had brought both Cookie (the ratty, filthy-even-though-I-wash-him-at-least-weekly, orange cat that she has taken to dragging around with her) and Bear. I had to wrap them both up in blankets because “my babies are going to be so chilly, Mommy!” and finally got the three of them to the car. Then Addie had to buckle Bear into Emma’s seat and Cookie got stuffed into the pocket behind the driver’s seat.

A: “You have to buckle all your babies up, don’t you Mama?”
M: “Yep. So they can be safe.”
A: “Babies need lots of good food, protein, and eight cups of water to grow, don’t they?”
M: “Yep, but I know something else they need…”
A: “Sleep?”
M: “Yes, well that, too. But something else.”
A: “I dunno, what?”
M: “LOVE! They need hugs and kisses. Don’t you need love from your Mommy and Daddy to grow?”
A: “I guess so. That is a lot of stuff. It is hard to be a Mommy all the time.”
M: “Amen. It is hard work to get your babies to grow up strong and healthy.”
A: “I think it is too hard. I think I will just stay a kid. All babies should stay kids so they don’t have to work so hard.”

If only it were that easy…

  1. That is absolutely priceless! I love her deductive reasoning — something is too hard/I will just remain a kid. Too cute!

  2. Oh my, now that is just pricless! I think she’s got the right idea. I have a feeling mom wouldn’t have any complaints about her staying a kid forever, either. :)
