my daughter complimented my derrierre

April 20th, 2006

My epithets at other drivers are “Crazy Person!” or “DUDE!”
Zibby picked these up right away. But she adds her own pizazz.

(mommy makes a sharp turn)
Zibby: Why, crazy person, why?
Mommy: Why, indeed, crazy person

(bus pulls out in front of mommy)
Mommy: DUDE!
Zibby: dude sucks.

Mommy: Pick a lane, lady!
Zibby: PERSON!! PERSON!!

I like to ask Zibby who is crazy.

Mommy: Who’s crazy, Zibby?
Zibby: Papa’s crazy
Mommy: I know! He is crazy!
Zibby: nooo, he is toot! He is a toot person!
Mommy: Papa’s cute? Who else is cute?
Zibby: Mama is a toot butt
Mommy: Cute. right? Cute butt. Has a cute butt.
Zibby: nahm. (nahm means yes in zibbyese)

Today was a Park/Gym day with one of the homeschool groups I participate in. But we were waiting on a UPS delivery that had already been missed once. And I am helping coordinate meals for a friend who just had a baby, and the mom who was going to bring something over today got sick. I whipped up a tortellini soup to run over to her instead, and then my friend also needed a market run. So we were plenty busy. And we got our package, and it was fun stuff from Magic Cabin. yay!

Tomorrow is playgroup and I vow to get outside and take some photos.
And I need to deposit the condo association checks, call the vet, start organizing the chore coop w/ the condo owners, vacuum, make plans for my sister’s graduation weekend, schedule my next cloth diaper workshop, call my sil about a playdate, thaw chicken for dinner, and do some laundry.

and tonight I need to get some sleep….
