Conversations with Chaela (Part IV)


Chaela: Daddy is silly, mommy.
Me: Yes, he is.
Chaela: He's a good kid, but tell him to get a hair cut.

*

Me: Chaela, you're such a good artist!
Chaela: Yes, I am.  And I'm so pretty.

*

While in the bathroom by herself going potty, suddenly we hear her shout:

"I'm SICK OF THIS!"

*

Chaela: Mommy, where did daddy go?
Me: I'm not sure, honey.
Chaela: Oh!  He ran away from you again.

*

Every time it snows:

[gasp] "Mommy!  It's CHRISTMAS AGAIN!"

*

At the store, she pointed at an exit sign:

Chaela: Look, mommy, it spells exit!
Me: Looking around to see if the other shoppers have noticed how smart my baby is. Yes, honey, you're right.  That sign says 'exit.'
Chaela: That's where we go to the bathroom.

*

Right now, Chaela is at the age where everything is a song.  In fact, right now she's singing "Mommy have a bad attitude about it, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah... to the tune of Bingo.  We've been talking about attitudes lately, because she has one, so it needed discussing.  She's growing in to such a smart and good kid, it's hard to keep up with her.  I just hope I can be a good mother to her... I have so much to improve on!

All of that is sooo funny!!! You are doing an awesome job as a mom Caitlyn. And you have one very cute very smart little girl who just takes after her mother. =)
