Silly Things Kids Do


  • Find cute fotos like these on the internet and save them in the photo album on your iPhone.
  • Want you to be upstairs, where the shower is, before they take a shower at night.
  • Ask you to throw out a Raggedy Ann doll, bought circa 2008, because it looks creepy and haunted. [You do it. Even though you adored your own Raggedy Ann and Andy as a girl.]
  • Talk affectionately to the hen and chicks cactus plant out front when you point out that a baby chick is growing.
  • Say silly things like Hey little dog and Hey Bae many times a day to the shaggy Bichon Frise in the house.
  • Wear deodorant before they really need it.
  • Squirt the ketchup on their bread in a squiggly design.
  • Not want foods on their plate to touch each other.
  • Separate out the peas from the tortellini and count out 50 green orbs before eating them.
  • Say things like "I have to step up my game for fifth grade," meaning style wise.
  • Count how many miles away a storm is based on the frequency of rumbling thunder--a skill learned from a friend named Owen. 
  • Say they are lactose-intolerant--as some of their friends are--and then manage just fine with a whipped cream-topped Frappuccino or an ice cream.

We love her little self. Good night.

  1. Wonderful list! What a cutie, and how lucky she is to have you to appreciate her.
    My own maturity is in doubt since I put party collars on Lionna and have a false nose and glasses on a cactus at work... TGIF!
