Chris picked the girls up from school yesterday. As usual, they made a trek to the water fountain. Just before Maggie took her drink, she looked at her dad and said, "You don't stink, but the rest of the boys do!" Chris, not really knowing how to respond to this, looks at Grace -- who rolls her eyes, shakes her head and says, "I have no idea."
We had a similar bewildering moment at the dinnertable. It was Make Your Own Taco Night, which the girls LOVE. I should mention than Izzy loves it too, because it's messy on the floor! Anyway, the conversation went something like this:
Me: "How was your day Grace?"
Grace: "Lailani hit me in the arm really hard. Alyssa kicked me in the leg and Maddison screamed in my ear really loud.
Me: "Oh, that's not nice! Did you tell the teacher? Did they get in trouble?
Grace: Well, it was all an accident. Except for Alyssa kicking me. That was on purpose. And Lailani hit me. On the arm. On purpose. Maddison screaming in my ear was an accident. Well, no. Maybe that was on purpose too. I don't know, but I didn't like it much".
Me: "Well, Maggie, how was YOUR day?"
Maggie: "Good".
Me: "That's it. Good".
Maggie: "Yep".
They are so different!
