Everyday Conversations
My husband and I are getting ready for bed:
Him: (he has just finished brushing his teeth) "Uh, what color was your toothbrush again??"
Me: "It's the red one."
Him: (silent for a moment) "That's what I was afraid of."
Me: "Ooooo. Oh, It's ok! I can just get another one in the morning. We have a few extras!"
Him: "Yea, but where will I get another brushin'!?!?"
I could not go to sleep for giggling. All the while he's laying there thinking about the germs.
Caroline and I are in the car on our way to school. She is adding, using her fingers, in the back seat.
Her: "Ok mom. 5 plus 5 equals... " (she's counting) ... "10!"
Me: "GREAT honey! That's right!"
Her:" Ok so let's say we have 10 cookies. I give you half, me half and daddy half."
Me: "Well, you can't give us all half. You would have to divide by 3 because there are 3 of us so let's keep it easy. Let's just give you half and me half. That would be 5 and 5."
Her: "NO! MOM! Dad likes cookies too!"
Oh, bless her heart.
