Raising ME!

Oh, my daughter…she is so very much like her mother and it’s going to DO.ME.IN!

I love her so very much and everything she does makes me smile.  She is happy and joyful and the most “blonde” person I’ve ever met.  I think I’m going to create a new section of the blog called “real quotes” so I can post all the funny things she says.

She just came to me and her mouth was blue.  I asked if she had eaten a cupcake (today is Preston’s birthday…more on that later) and she said no.  I went to the kitchen to assess the damage and I found that she had not eaten a cupcake.  She just stuck her finger in the icing of every single remaining cupcake.  I can’t reprimand her for this…because she is ME!  I totally understand her rationale.  She wanted to taste it without eating a whole one because she knew that wasn’t allowed.

When I was a Senior in High School my mom brought home a box of Shamrock cookies on St. Patrick’s day.  I saw that one had a leaf broken off, but I knew she needed the cookies for her Mah Jongg group that night.  Instead of taking a whole cookie, I broke a little piece off of every one of them.  I thought she was going to kill me when she opened the box.

Now I understand.  LK just stuck her grimey, dog-petting hands in every single cupcake.  Oh well, can’t say I blame her.  I love that maniac!

UPDATE…

As I was posting the pics on the blog, I heard a noise coming from the kitchen.  Sam found the cupcakes!  BAD DOG!  At least I know they’re liked by all!

The cupcakes have now been put away!
