sick

I spend a lot of time hanging out with this three year old.

We eat lunch together every single day.

She loves to talk.

(Except when she doesn't.)

I eat lunch, she talks.

(Except when she doesn't.)

Our lunch conversation yesterday:

"Mama. I'm sick of talking!"

"OK. Don't talk!"

Then she "shushes" me, 'cause we aren't talking.

I do an imaginary "zip shut" of my mouth.

Wait 8 seconds....

"I'm not sick of talking anymore!"

"OK!"

""Mama, don't talk, I'm sick of talking! But I'm not sick of laughing!"

(insert big ol' fake belly laugh)

"OK."

Repeat this conversation about 9 times and you will have experienced my lunch

with a three year old.
