Time: An Ever-Changing Concept

All last week, the constant refrain around here was,

"When Clara's a baby, he's gonna wear _____." [insert anything of Joey's, anything Joe was playing with, anything he looked at, etc]

Yes, there are a number of odd things with this sentence.

1) Clara consistently mixes up her gender pronouns. So if you meet her, don't be offended if you're a woman and she refers to you as "he". Men, vice versa.

2) I asked her the other day, "so you're going to be a baby again someday?" Yep. Apparently that's the theory she's working with. I just go with it, as it's her current favorite delusion.

As a relief tonight, she did declare, "When Clara's a mommy, he's gonna have a purple toothbrush."

Phew. At least she can go forward in time, too.

And thirty years down the road, [fingers crossed] I'll give her that purple toothbrush to celebrate her motherhood. ;P

Catch This!

The Girl can catch.




You go, girl!

Three Way Conversations

Typical mealtime conversation:

Joey: ooo, ooo, ooo

Clara: Joey's talkin'!

Me: What's he saying?

Clara: Ooo, ooo, ooo.

And here I was, hoping for an interpreter.
