Conversations with Kendra

playing with editing - I LOVE this self-portrait

K Mummy, why do you call us babies if we're big kids?

Me Well, Baby, I don't have any other babies so you're my babies.

K But when will you stop calling us babies?

Me Kendra, quite honestly, I don't know if I'll ever stop calling you my babies.

And then I tickled her.

K spilled something after we told her it was going to happen because she was messing around in her seat.

D Kendra! I told you to sit nicely.

K Daddy, I'm only three, you know.

K Mummy, when I ask Teacher Thembi if I can go to the bathroom, she says "okay, my baby".

Me Do you like it when she does that?

K Yes!

Me So why don't you like it when I call you baby?

K Because I like it when you call us Pumpkin

K And I also like it when Daddy calls me Pipsqueak :)

Sweet baby girl!

************

K Daddy, I love you soooo much. I asked for a daddy like you. I asked God for you.

(which is very sweet but a little bit freaky, or is that just me?)

How's your Monday been?

Mine was quite good except for first thing this morning going round and around in the CBD's one-way streets trying to find the parking entrance. I WILL do better tomorrow.
