Today was a busy
day. For Emma's birthday, we ran
errands. Popo and GongGong
and the three of us went all over the place, including to Target where we both
got to pick out outfits! At night, we
had birthday cake for Emma! Earlier in
the day . . .
Memorable
conversation #1
We have been away from Dad for a week now. We stay in touch by seeing him on Skype every
night . Sometimes though, he's already in bed and all we see is blackness with
Dad's voice. Tonight, here's what
happened.
Julia: Dad!
Turn on the light for one minute.
Dad: Oh. Okay.
Julia: Two minutes.
Dad: Oh, okay.
Julia: Three minutes. (mom laughs
at dad)
Dad: No. (dad takes a stand)
Julia: Oh, okay. Fine!
(exasperation in her voice but resigned)
Memorable
conversation #2
Julia: Mom, can we have ice cream for
breakfast?
Mom: No.
Julia: I don't like your opinions.
(Post
script: Then Emma piped in:
"Mama, I love your 'pinions!"
Mom said, "Thanks, Em!" What a brown-noser!)
