It's been awhile since I've done an edition of The Chatter.
I've been trying to jot down a few of the best conversations I've had with the girls recently...
Ruby: Your belly looks like it has a baby in it. But it's just your tights, right?
{thanks Ruby…}
We gave the girls some mini marshmallows after dinner one day. Maia was really upset because she only got 4 and she wanted 5 because she's going to be 5 soon. With a certain amount of vengeance, she muttered under her breath "I know, I'll just break the curse."
One morning Maia came into our room at 6, waking me up by saying, "I don't want to die. Bitty Baby and Teddy won't have anyone to look out for them."
I moved over to pull her into bed and said something like "Oh honey, don't worry about it, you won't die for a long time," but she squirmed away and headed back to her room.
About a half hour later as we were starting to get breakfast, she told me "I think they'll [Bitty Baby and Teddy] get married so I don't need to worry about it."
Then the other night as Ruby was getting tucked into bed we had the following conversation:
Ruby: People make bad decisions when they're stressed, right?
Me: Who told you that?
Ruby: Right?
Me: Right. Who told you that?
Ruby: You did.
I had no memory of telling her that, but it felt really familiar, like maybe I did say it at some point. I mean, it kind of sounds like something I would say.
Then today we were watching "Fixer Upper" from Frozen and it all clicked into place. Start paying attention around the 2 minute mark.
(On a semi-related note, I can't wait until this movie comes out! The girls and I are dying to see it in its entirety.)
