Yea, what she said

I know, I know.  Where have you been?! 

Well, it's summer.  And I have been spending all daylight hours outside in the beautiful sun, basking.

Which means catching up with chores at night and then crashing into bed to catch a few hours of sleep.  Not to mention, the kidlets have been getting to bed late, late, late.  I mean, it's not unusual for the fam to be swimming well into nightfall dodging mosquitoes under the water.  

With that said, I thought I would throw out a couple little ditties said to me by my beautiful daughter.....

One morning as we were busily trying to hurry out of the house for a day of work/day care, Chachi came to stand next to me as I prepared breakfast.  There I am slaving at the hot stove microwave when these big brown eyes look up at me and say,

"Mommy?"

"Yes?"

"Do you think, if we like just have to go to the store real quick or somethin', you know like near our house or somethin' , that I can drive the car?"

"Um, no!" I say as I fall to the floor in shock, convulsing.

"Why not?!  I can drive the golf cart!" she yells. 

Isn't it kinda early for her to be asking for the car?  I mean, I understand with all the hormones in our food that kids are developing a wee bit faster, but still.  Come on.  At 5! 

And just this morning, I heard little foot steps come into the bathroom as I was showering.

"Hello?  Identify yourself or you get shampoo in the eye!" I yelled out. 

"It's me."  she giggles. 

"Who's me?" I question.

"Chachi.  You know that Mommy." she said with sleep in her voice.  

"Good morning, Chachi.  Have a nice sleepy?" I ask her tenderly.

"Um-hum." as I pull back the curtain and see her nod. 

"Are you sure you're Chachi?" I ask kiddingly, "Not Tinkerbell?"

"Yea, I'm Tinkerbell!" she exclaims, perking up, "But I will need wings."

"Ah, wings.  Well, I am fairly certain we can't just buy them at the store." I said playing along. 

"Not real ones anyway." she says.

"Nope, not real ones for sure."  I reiterate.

"Well, I am just going to have to find that Tinkerbell and take hers."

I always thought that the obsession with a spiritual 'methodology', was just a shallow twentieth century systems approach to Catholicism.
