'Til My Sides Hurt: A Hazel Funny

When ever she is talking about something that happened before the current day, Hazel says, "It was nast light" instead of last night.

With a sad little face Hazel told me, "Mom, Abiah said I'm not smart because I don't know what's plus plus one!"

I keep a cold-air humidifier going in the girl's and Jackson's bedroom to hopefully help Jackson sleep better at night. I think the only thing that has truly come out of the experiment is the girls discovering how to get the water out. All over the linoleum floor (awe.some.).

This morning the girls woke up at 5:30. Fantastic, I know. Trying to encourage them to let me get a few more minutes of sleep I asked them to stay on their beds and talk to each other. They weren't to thrilled with my request but I was desperate. After about three times of reminding them that they were supposed to be on their beds Hazel asked, "Mom, what would happen if a little girl took a machine with water in it and threw it on her mom?"

I had no response. Except laughter. Her frustration with me was obvious, but she was so clever in her delivery. She's obviously smarter than her brother gives her credit.
