Things you Never Want to Hear Your Daughter Say....

I am afraid this could be a common title during my Facebook free Lent...

Today while driving home from CATECHISM (you will understand the caps soon... trust me) my Matthew and Ruby were discussing their doctor's visit yesterday.

Matthew: "Mom, don't forget the doctor said to take everything out of Ruby's room so she will be bored and sleep."

Me: "Matthew, that is a great idea, but it's not going to happen unless the doctor rents me a storage unit and does it for me. Thank you for worrying about your sister's sleep hygiene."

Ruby: "Well I don't care WHAT the doctor says, you are not taking my American Girl doll"

Matthew: "But you should take her doll mom, she likes to play with it when she is supposed to be sleeping."

Ruby: "Well she better not take my doll, that would just make me mad. Besides, she could take everything from my room and I could have fun with just a pole."

Matthew: "A pole?! What are you going to do with a pole?!"

Ruby: "All sorts of fun stuff if I have to. I am good at doing stuff that is fun."

Yea, I am not making this up. Nothing like having your daughter announce that her future involves fun with a pole on the way home from church.....

Pray for me.

God is good. All the time.

I love Ruby! She is too funny!

She once told me that I look like Vera, except I am old and have yellow teeth...

that day I did not love her so much ;)
