Part Two "Convos with my kiddos"

-

Hello there!

After Tuesday night, I think some funny convos are needed.

Here is part two of “Convos with my kiddos.”

Enjoy, laugh, and take a moment to breathe.

We are all in this together!

*P.S. I'm keeping names out, so if you see Re****, that's just someone's name*

 

*This is all five of my kiddos in order by age*
*The one in the middle gives me most of my content, lol*

 "Help your sister make the no-bake bars"

*they go into the kitchen*

"Mom, how long do we put these in the oven for?"

*I just had to sit there in confusion. Was it not in the name*

"OOOOOOO never mind!

My two oldest daughters have mentors they have been with since kindergarten (now they are 16 and 14 years old).

One of my daughters went out with her mentor not too long ago, and this was the conversation we had when she came back.

“Mom, Sa*** said we were going to see her friend right.”

“Okay……”

“She said her friend like owns her or store or just works there. I forget that part. But she said her friend was a florist.”

“Okay, what’s wrong with that?”

“Well, when we were on our way I asked her what kind of floors or carpets does her friend make.”

“Wait, you said what (trying to hold in my laughter)”

“No, just listen. When we got there, all I saw were flowers, and I was so confused.”

(Still holding back, the immediate need to laugh)

“It’s not funny. I realized once we were there that it meant she works with flowers, not floors.”

(Laughter bursting, could not control my urge to hold it back any longer)

“MOM! It’s not funny.”

“You'r right it’s not……. it’s hilarious!”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I overheard this being said to my husband.

“So, I wanted my phone to charge slower.”

“Why would you want that?”

“Cause I was doing something and I just wanted to see if I could get it to charge slower.”

“Okay….”

“I only plugged in one part of the charger but when I went back to check it, it hadn’t charged at all.”

“What do you mean one part of the charger.”

**At this point, she processed to show my husband the progs on the charger**

“I only plugged in one of these.”

“Br******* That’s not going to charge anything.”

"Well, I know that now."

**Better him than me**

My children have NO idea what a thesaurus is.

My child asked me what app I was on one day.

My response
"I use a thesaurus app to help with my writing since we don't have a physical copy of one in the house."

I shit you not, this was their response,

"Since when did you start writing about dinosaurs!?"

I am flabbergasted

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mom, if you weren't here, we would be lost without you."

"Oh really, why is that?"
"Because we would just be lost. We would have to ration food and fight to survive, save whatever can goods we could find. It would be crazy!"

"Your being ridiculous, you guys would be fine. You have your father."
"Like I said, we'd be fighting to survive."
"Go to bed..."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mom. I'm gonna run away."
"Don't give me my Christmas gift early."
"Fine, I'm staying, so you'll be miserable."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Day after Halloween*
"I know exactly what I wanna be for Halloween next year."
"How about we wait until next year when we get close again."
"But we're close now. It was just yesterday."
"Go to bed...."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I've made almost $3000 dollars this year."
"You just started your job a few months ago, plus it's only on Saturdays."
"Yeah but I added up all my bank statements."
"Oh well, most of that money was what your father and I gave you."
" Like I said, I've made almost $3000 this year. I didn't say it was from working."
"Go to bed....."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mommy I want to add some stuff to my Christmas list."
"Okay, let me get my phone to add it."
"Okay"
"What do you wanna add?"
"Coca-cola, popcorn, chocolate milk, and my own batteries."
"Really?... You know we can get that for you when we go shopping."
"I know, but if I ask for it for Christmas, I'll know exactly when I'll get it."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mom, where's Dad?"
"He’s at work. Why?"
"I wanted to ask him something."
"You better not ask him for Robux, I'm serious. No more Robux for a while. You ask him when he comes home from work, and you’re in big trouble."
* whispers* "Well, you ask daddy to buy things."
"Oh really, please tell me what I ask Daddy to buy that we don't need?"
" You ask him to buy Wendys..."
" That was for you and your sister. I didn't even get anything for myself."
" You ask him for money so you can buy clothes..."
" Please tell me the last time I bought clothes for myself?"
"Before summer."
"What month are we in now?"
"November...."
"Exactly. And before that, I can't tell you the last time I got new clothes."
"Okay, fine, I won't ask him. " 

* Goes back to his room*

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are all real conversations that either my husband or I have had with our children. 

They are well aware of me writing them down to share with the world (lol).

So next time one of your children says something, and you think to yourself, “There is no way other people’s kids say these things,” just remember my little group of lovely, and know you are not alone.

Us parents are in this struggle together.

We will help them make it to adulthood one silly conversation at a time.

Until next time.........

  I don’t know about you but sometimes my kids say the craziest stuff. Let me take you through a journey of stupid, silly, and downright crazy crap my children have said to me over the years. Just keep in mind that I have three girls ages 16,14 and 10, and two boys ages 14 and 9.  Mom how do you clean the oven?” (My child) 1.     “Mom how do you clean the oven?” (My child) “It has a self-clean thing on it, why?” (Me) “So, you just clean in yourself?” (My child) “Please go away.” (Me)   2.     “I wish I was white” (My child) “You are part white.” (Me) “No, I wish I was full white” (My child) “Why do you wish that?” (Me) “Because then I can eat all the lemons I want, and I’d be rich” (My child) “Please go away” (Me)   3.)      “Mom, can I get a robot for Christmas?” (My child) “Are you serious, it’s April” (Me) “I’m just letting you know early, so you’ll be ready” (My child) “If you don’t get ou...

My Path

I was a model at 4 years old. I loved to look pretty and wear beautiful dresses. I loved getting my hair done and wearing big girl lipstick. I was very nervous and sometimes didn’t want to walk down the runway by myself. Sometimes my mommy had to hold my hand and help me walk down. Sometimes I didn’t want to do it at all, but my mommy said I was too pretty and needed to be a model. That one day I will be famous. I guess I wasn’t pretty enough because Mommy took things that made her not be my mommy anymore. Eventually, we had to go live with grandma and granddaddy. I still got to model but I also got to sing, I loved to sing. I loved singing so much that I was going to be a singer when I grew up. I didn’t want to just be a model anymore, I wanted to be a model and a singer. I told any and everyone that would listen to my dreams. I tried out for every talent show, joined the drama club, did plays at church, and sang in the choir every Sunday. I got lots of lead parts and I absolutel...

Her Love

  Outdoors is where she feels most calm, bright beams of sun that appear to only shine on her seize all her fears of motherhood. Hearing her children laugh and play makes the world seem so much easier to handle.  She knows life can be difficult, although it became easier to understand when she was required to look at it through the eyes of her children. The future is hers to mend by teaching her young ducklings the compassionate ways of the world many have lost. The fear of forgetting scares her most, but her love helps them never to forget her or her love.   “There is no way to be a perfect mother…but a million ways to be a good one.” -Jill Churchill-
