Conversations with Zoe...


Yesterday I took my girl to the zoo. We started out in the children's farm (my least favorite). Zoe noticed the baby donkey nursing and says "Look mom, baby donkey drinking his mommy's pribates (privates)." I had nothing.

Now we're at the Hippos. They can't be found upstairs or down, and I really wasn't in the mood to go searching for them so I told Zoe they were in their bedroom taking a nap. She then proceeded to inform me that they were taking their nap, with their chap stick. ?? "Oh yeah?" I said. "Yes, they are taking a nap in their room with their chap stick." A few minutes later, "Mom? Hippos have chap stick?" I guess they do.

Last week my mom and I took a trip with Zoe to Dallas to visit the Ikea store. One evening at dinner (Freddy's) Zoe is enjoying her custard, stands up, spoon in hand and starts chanting "For ice cream, for ice cream." Someone had apparently told her the rhyme "You scream, I scream..." she screams "for ice cream!"

That's my girl. Never a dull moment.
