I can't handle the princess stuff..........

Ok, I have shook my head in astonishment all day today in regards to some of the conversations our children have had with me!

Graham was downstairs playing with his new toys and came upstairs and said:
"Mom, I love you!  You are the best mom I've ever had!"

Ok, so obviously, I am the only mother he has ever had but seriously, it melted my heart!

At supper tonight:
K:  Hey mom!  Guess what?!!  Did you know that "Caricles" almost got eaten by Crocodiles?!!!  (she said something else but I couldn't get past the vocabulary for one, and two, I had no idea what the heck a Caricle was and I am pretty sure it is misspelled)
Me:  What did she just say?  Caricle?  What the heck?
Gabe: yeah a Caricle
Graham:  you know...a Caricle is a Cat....they live in the African Savannah
Me: uhm, yeah ok......(at this point, I felt like an insanely stupid blonde)

And the convo continued but I can't even begin to regurgitate it!


After Kamryn's shower, and I finished combing her hair she said,
K: Ok, can you take me to my castle now?! (In a high pitched, prissy voice)
As we are putting her pj's and lotion on:

K: Uhm mom, will you go get my "Pinkalicious books."
Me: How about you go get your books since you know where they are.  I am not your Maid.
K: Well that's why God made you....so you can go get my books, excuse me...I have to work on my computer.
Me: Excuse me?!?!

In order to even write this brief summary of conversations, I had to ask Graham what the name of the "Animal" was that we discussed at supper.

Me: Hey, Graham what animal did Kamryn talk about at Supper?
Graham:  A carickle.
Me:  I don't even know how to spell it.
Graham:  "Kuh" - "cuh" ...It makes a "C" or a "K" Sound.  I don't know.  Just ask your phone...it will probably tell you.
Me:  Yeah probably.  I have never heard of it.
Graham: (just kinda gave a little laugh) Oh Kamryn.  She is always acting like a  "pickle pants."

Well folks....I am gonna sign off.  Just figured I better update this while I could remember how to say "Caricle" or whatever the heck it is....a cat.........huh, who knew...............and the journey continues!
