The Sunday Funnies

Dorothy and Willa like to pretend-play mother and daughter.  I overheard Dorothy say, "Why don't you pretend that you're 10 and I'll pretend that I'm 90 or as old as my mama?"

Dorothy told me, "Mama, I would do anything for you."  I said, "Well, I would do anything for you, too."  I let a few seconds pass, and then I started naming a few of the things I would do; for example, "I would jump into a swimming pool of Jello for you."  Dorothy responded very seriously, "Mom, I wouldn't ask you to do that."

Dorothy asked, "Can teenagers drive themselves?"
I answered, "Some can.  When you turn 16 years old, you can get a driver's license."
Dorothy responded, "And what does that do?"

Dorothy has been going to a Montessori school for two years now.  In Montessori classes, teachers try to be very hands-off and respectful of the child's natural curiosities.  There is a new teacher, Ms. Ashley.  Dorothy came home on Friday singing a new song.  She said that the new teacher, Ms. Ashley, taught it to her.  Then she added, "Ms. Ashley said, 'When I am talking, who else should be talking?  No one.'  Is that true, Mommy?"

We had a yard sale today and Dorothy took very seriously her job of keeping the tags straight in the wind

I handed Dorothy a cup and she put it in her carseat's cup holder.  "Perfect fit!" she said.  I said, "I guess the cup was the same size as the cup holder."  And Dorothy countered, "They're not the same size.  If they were exactly the same size it wouldn't fit."

Dorothy wanted a treat to eat before bed.  She said, "Can I have a treat?  Just a little night time bribe?"

Uncle Daniel texted me a picture of a toy he found at his house, and asked if it was Dorothy's.  I thought it was hers, and I showed it to Dorothy and asked, "Is this your My Little Pony comb?"  She answered, "I think so.  It is the same shape and color as mine."
