CONVERSATIONS WITH EMMA

"Mom, I'm going to be good all day tomorrow and I'm not going to cry... But if my eyes get wet I have to cry but I'll just wipe them on my shirt."

While discussing my birthday Emma says to me, "I'm going to help you blow out your candles. Or if you want I can just blow them out". Pauses for a few moments then says "So which do you choose?"

Emma: "Momma, why do I keep getting a wedgie tonight?"

Me: "Are your panties on backwards?"

Emma pauses a moment then smiles real big at me... I think we know why!

The new car has blue tooth. So when you want to make a call you just push a button on the steering wheel and say "Call (enter name) " and it will call that person. Sometimes the blue tooth doesn't understand the name you are trying to call so then you have to say "Dial (enter phone #) ".

I picked Emma and Drew up from Ms Tonya's yesterday and Emma had her pretend cell phone. She says "Mom, I'm going to call MeMaw". Then she says very loudly and very slowly "CALL CHERYL"... she waits a moment then says loudly and slowly "DIAL 2 2 0 9 3 5 7 7".

"Mom, do you have a tattoo or is that paint on your butt?"

Unfortunately it's not paint.
