Jill: "Can you go fast with your shoes off?"
Me: Uhhhh, "Yes."
Jill: "How come?"
Me: Uhhhh, "Because."
Jill: "You can't go any faster than the speed limit, right? Cause you'll get a ticket"
Me: "Yes, that is right."
Jill: "But you can still go fast?"
Me: "As long as you don't go too fast."
Jill: "Well, why do you want to take your shoes off?"
Me: ahhhhh!!! Breath deep, she means no harm. "Mommy needs to drive now so no more talking until we get to Costco."
Jill: "What?"
Me, louder: "Let's be quiet until we get there."
Jill: "What?"
I'll spare you my reply that I'm sure she heard loud and clear.
Like I said, I do love my Jilly. She IS the sweetest. Just look at her! How could I ever get frustrated with a kidlet with a face like that?

I completely understand - but no guarantees it changes any as they get older ;)
Megan, that sounds very much like the car ride I had yesterday with Casey. I dont understand how they can hear you open a bag of chips when they are outside but cannot seem to hear you when they are right next to you and you ask them to do something. Must be the 3/4 year old age.
WEll, that made my day, along with Lenae's comment...!!! It is funny, but I am sure a daily dose could get tiring...but keep posting these conversations cause I enjoy them!
It must be a certain type of kiddo ... cause sometimes I could just scream as Brock follows me around chatting! And yet other times I could just squish him for all of his cute little comments. Maybe we need to put them on the phone to each other!
