Lilly's comments on why she kept getting out of her bed tonight:
8:00 pm: It's not dark.
8:06 pm: When we go to the greenhouse tomorrow, can I see if there's a pool? (it's a fountain and I made the mistake of telling her she could throw a penny in and make a wish)
8:12 pm: I need to go potty.
8:27 pm: Can I make 4 wishes and throw 4 pennies in?
8:34 pm: Hey Mommy, guess what, I can sing the whole Joy to the World!
8:40 pm: Hey Mommy, can I tell you something? Remember those two Ella books we had? (which are sitting on her bookshelf)
8:44 pm: I'll make 10 wishes!
8:47 pm: It's too dark.
8:55 pm: Okay, I'll just have 3 wishes.
9:02 pm: Maybe just 4 four wishes.
At about 9:10 I heard her singing to the tune of "she'll be coming round the mountain," "tape dinosaur train tomorrow" and "3 plus 4 makes 2 and 1 is 8."
Clearly, she had too long of a nap today.
Hilarious; bravo on this post. It put me right there--especially at "it's too dark." Thanks and give that cute & not-so-sleepy little niece of mine a big hug from her uncle Bill. Tell her I dig her methods and she oughtta keep the dream alive!
ReplyDeleteI know this isn't funny to you, but as an outsider I find it hilarious!
