Niney

My 5-year old sister Caroline, or "Niney" as we call her, has been answering the phone lately on her afternoons off from Kindergarten. I've been pretending that I think she is my mom when she answers. She's over it now, but the first time was hilarious.

"Oh, hi mom," I said casually.

"uh.... Hi..."

"How was your Governance Board meeting?"

A pause as she wonders if I'm serious or not.. "Uh.. Pwetty good.."

"what did you wear to the meeting?"

Another pause.. Can Caitie really be this dumb?

"Uh.. Some high he-ohs. And my puhse."

"Oh! Your high heels and your purse, huh? So what are you gonna make for dinner?" I asked.

"Ugh," she groans. "Pwobabwee somfeen wiff vegetabwes."


LOL Isn't she funny? Also, at bedtime prayers the other night, she thanked God for skunks and cops.
