Oh Evelyn...

I can't resist posting the crazy things Evelyn is coming up with lately. Here goes!

This year Ashley (my sister) will be taking Evelyn to school a few days a week, today was her first morning. Everything went great, per Ashley's text message, and I was slated to pick Evelyn up this afternoon. I arrived at her school and the program director was there and an interesting conversation unfolded:

Ms. B: "Who was that that dropped Evelyn off this morning? I asked Evelyn who she was and she didn't know."

Me: "It was Ashley, my sister."

Ms. B: laughs "Ok, well I asked Evelyn if that was her aunt and she said no, then I asked if that was a friend and she said no. Finally I asked her who it was and she said "My other mommy." I was a little confused by her answer and I just thought I would ask you to find out for sure."

Needless to say, Evelyn and I had a good conversation on the way home about who her aunts where. When I asked her the first one she listed was Pa!

Kid Speak

Everyone knows kids say the craziest, sometimes smartest things. I am the worst at forgetting the funny things the kids say, but tonight Tristan and Evelyn said something that I wrote down and decided to post.

Emeline was asking why God would make monsters and ghosts. I explained that there is not such thing as monsters and ghosts. To which Evelyn replied "I know why God didn't make monsters. He didn't have enough bones left. He only had one bone left." She was so serious in her explanation and it also seemed to make Emeline feel better!

Shortly after Evelyn's justification for the non-existence of monsters I was telling the kids a secret and made them all pinky swear not to tell anyone else our secret. Of course then everyone wanted to tell a secret. Tristan made me pinky swear and then he told: "I have a girlfriend, her name is Brianna." Me: "Oh, is she in your class?" Tristan: "Yes, but she doesn't know yet, so don't tell her." Hilarious!!

I need to be writing down all of  those "Things I Never Thought I Would Say" so I'm going to start now! Here are a couple recent ones and some not so recent I can remember:

"Emeline, don't put your head on the tomatoes."

"Emeline, stop throwing the cat."

"Don't hit your sister in the face with a light saber."

"Get your head out of the trash can."

That's all I can remember. Going to start writing down, or at least blogging, more of what they say.
