A Hairy Situation

S: Daddy, will I have hair on my legs someday?
Me: Yes.
S: But I don't want hair on my legs!
Me: Why not? It looks great and keeps you warm and it feels kind of fuzzy.
S: Nooooooo! I don't want to be a man!
Me: Honey, it's normal for women to have hair on their legs....
S: I still don't want hair on my legs.
Me: Did you know that some women don't have hairy legs?...
S: They don't? Maybe I won't have hair on my legs.
Me: You probably will.
S: Noooooo!....

The Menu

"The food that is left on my plate are the parts I don't like, the parts I don't think anyone likes. It's not a part of my recipe, I mean, my menu...."

Spitfire Girl

S: I didn't spit on Thalia today.
Me: Uhh, I hope you didn't spit on anyone today!
S: I didn't! I didn't spit on anyone today!
Me: Why are we talking about this?

Apparently, there was some spitting going on yesterday. Don't ask... : p

The Announcement

Good Report

Laura's Post:

Me: Did your teachers read you a story today?
S: Yes, lots of stories. But they didn't cry.
Me: Because they weren't sad stories?
S: No. I mean they didn't cry even though some teachers got to read more stories than others...

The Spider's Gone

Sophia shouts out from the bathroom, "Oh no! Where's the spider! The spider's gone!"

I expect her to scream and run out of the bathroom in fear of her life like she usually does, but she doesn't.

"I'm so sad! The spider's gone!"

"You're sad? I thought you were afraid of spiders."

"I am afraid of spiders, but I liked this spider. He was my friend. I named him Blacky. This was his home, and now he's gone."

"You named him what?"

"I named him Blacky."

"Blocky?"

"No, Blacky."

I bet you the spider left because of the sketchy name...
