Lesson of the day. . .

and I quote. . .

"Mom, I need to tell you something very important. Flammable things are very dangerous!"
"Like what?" I asked
"You know, like fire, candles, and matches and flams too I think."
Oh, good to know:)

Very random, but entertaining (I hope) conversations, trivia, and jokes from the Hesselton household!

Weird Conversation

*warning- the first section pertains to nasal discharge. If this topic makes you feel sick to your stomach or like you may lose your lunch then please skip directly to the next section;)

Heard from the back seat of the car:

Lily: Hey Sophie, look at me.

Sophie: I can’t, I’m bust right now.

Lily: You’re not busy!

Sophie: Yes I am- I’m picking my nose!

Lily: hahahahahahah. . .

A few moments later. . .

Sophie: Mommy, mommy! Guess what? I don’t eat my boogers any more- I just flick them!

Me: speechless

Comedy Minute

(the last bit got cut off- here it is below)

Heart to Heart Talk with Lily (she's growing up- a little bit!)

Lily: mommy, I’m not the best big sister:(

Me: Why not? What do you mean?

Lily: Sometimes I step on Sophie’s blanket when she’s walking and sometimes I sneak up on her and I steal it- hehe- but I always give it back!

-As an aside, this was not news to me

Me: Well, why do you do that if you know it makes Sophie upset?

Lily: Sometimes I’m having so much fun and I just can’t stop myself. Sorry- I’m not going to do that anymore!

Well, guess what came next: A prayer for self control. We prayed fervently-at least I did:)

Little Known Fact

After Lily had just turned 2 we created a little night time ritual that now she and Sophie both partake in. Every night when I leave the girls room I call out, “I love you to pieces!” and the response I receive from Lily (and now Sophie too) is, “I love you to shapes!” It never gets old:)

Well Known Fact

Snow days cause us to go a bit mad! Happy winter!!

Cuteness of the day (the Sophie edition)

While taking loving care of her babies (aka- throwing them out of her toy pack n play one by one to make room for bunny), I asked her what her baby's names are.
Without missing a beat she said, "This one is Kooky, this one is Sally, and this one is Poopa."

I'm not sure if she came up with this right then and there or had thought about this previously, but nonetheless it was hysterical!- to me anyway:)


Bonus cute Sophie statement: "Mommy, Mommy! Look I found my viotar! I was looking all over for it!"
Me: "Do you mean your violin or your guitar?"
Sophie: "Oh, yeah. My violin."

After reading this to Lily, her comment (after laughing like a hyena about the name Poopa) was, "Oh, that is so interesting, but that violin is not hers, it's mine."
