I'm in Trouble

Lina’s first day of school was today and as we were walking out of orientation we talked about a few of her friends that were in her class.  

Mommy: Did you see Sammy was in your class?

Lina: He was?  I didn’t see him.

Mommy: Yep.  You like Sammy, don’t you?

Lina: Yeah, he’s my man.

Mommy: I thought Max was your man.

Lina: Oh yeah, he is.  I have two mans.

Fun Times

In the car on the way to Mimi and Pop’s house…

Lina: Remember when it was raining and you couldn’t see?

Mommy: Yes, that’s happened to us a couple of times hasn’t it?

Lina: Yeah, those were fun times.

Who Is This Kid?

Mommy: Lina, do you want noodles for your birthday dinner tomorrow?

Lina: Ummm, no.

Mommy: No?  You don’t want pasta?  You love pasta, I thought for sure you’d want plain noodles.

Lina: No.

Mommy:  Okay.  Do you want chicken nuggets or pancakes?

Lina: No.

Mommy:  Okay, well what do you want?  Because I’m out of guesses.

Lina: Fish.

Mommy: Fish?

Lina: Yeah, fish.

Mommy: Do you want broccoli with your fish?

Lina: Broccoli?  Oh yeah, I do.  Broccoli and that white stuff.

Mommy:  You mean cauliflower?

Lina: Yeah, broccoli and cauliflower.

Mommy:  Are you sure you don’t want noodles?

Lina: Nope.  I want fish.

Mommy: Okay, I’ll make you fish with rice and broccoli.

Lina: Rice?

Mommy: Yes, rice.

Lina: I don’t want rice.  I want bread.

Mommy: Okay, I’ll go to the store and get the bread you like.

Lina:  Thanks.

Mommy: Your welcome.  So then we’ll have fish with bread and broccoli for your birthday dinner.

Lina: Don’t forget the cauliflower.

Mommy:  We had that tonight, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots.

Lina:  I don’t want the carrots, just the broccoli and cauliflower.

Mommy:  Okay, I’ll see if they have a mix without the carrots.

Lina: Thanks,

Mommy:  You are very welcome.  Did you want to go to McDonalds instead?

Lina: No, I want fish.

Mommy:  Okay.

New Friends

Mommy’s Coworker to Lina:  Is this your brother?

Lina: Yeah.

Mommy’s Coworker: What’s your brother’s name?

Lina:  His name is Loveheart, but my mom and dad call him Brady.

The Honesty of a Child

Mommy:  Lina, you’ve been such a good girl this morning, let’s keep it up!  Although, I don’t think you could ever be bad.

Elina:  Sometimes I’m bad.  Well, technically I want to be good.  But, daddy irritates me.

Santa

Lina:  Mom, why is Santa coming?

Inside Mommy’s Head:  Okay, how can I spin this to be about Jesus and not presents?

Mommy:  Well, Santa is coming to help us celebrate Jesus’ birthday.  Remember we talked about Mary and Joseph?

Lina:  Is he coming because it’s Christmas?

Inside Mommy’s Head:  Oh yeah, that’s much easier.

Mommy:  Yes!  That’s exactly why he’s coming!
