A Conversation About Mud


Mama: That's a great mud puddle!
Oly: Mud!
Mama: But we're not going to get muddy today, just look.
Oly: Mud.
Mama: Yep, it looks like great mud but we're not going to touch it today, maybe another day.
Oly: Hand?
Mama: No, don't put your hand in it.
Oly: Shoe?
Mama: Nope.
Oly: Mud. Shoe?
Mama: No.
Oly: (very sadly) Noooooooo.
*Oly starts to put her shoe in the mud*
Mama: No Oly, no mud today.
*Oly tries it again*
Mama: Ah, ah, ah, no mud.
Oly: Ah, ah, ah.
Mama: Say, "Bye" to the mud.
Oly: Byeeeeeeeee *waves*

So eloquent! So profound! If she's already talking about mud, then poop cannot be far behind. Jasper can get her up to speed when next we see you. That's a promise.

Oh, she talks about poop, but only matter-of-factly as of yet. But I think in the grand scheme of things we have you beat with a poop story that Jasper will not be hearing. (It involves a toothbrush)

Precious!!! Thanks goodness the whole "Say bye to..." thing works like that! I wonder how long that will last. For now it has been my saving grace almost every day about something. (Especially when shopping.)

I crack up just thinking about a poop story that involves a toothbrush! It has got to be really good. Aunt margie
