I've decided to base all of my decisions the way our 4-year old does. When trying to decide which piece of halloween candy to eat, she will lay them out in front of her and say, "Skunk in the barnyard, pee-yoo. Somebody let him out, not you" and gradually eliminate it down to one lucky winner. It happens about 14 times a day. I think this would come in very handy in the high school setting (but so would our 4-year olds other popular saying, "Kiss my butt"- said right before going to church today). Oh, and there is also her lunch time conversation today of drinking a special Sprite she got trick-or-treating, "I'm going to pretend I'm Mom and that this is a Diet Coke. And that I have 100 more in my purse."
On an unrelated note, to the 60 people going on NYC 2012, it's gonna be fun...
She has only said the "kiss my..." one time and it just happened to be today.
ReplyDeleteAnd the skunk phrase is: "Skunk in the barnyard, pee-u, somebody let it out, that's you."
And I would just like to say that yesterday at lunch the girls were pretending to drink coffee - so I say 100 Diet Cokes in the purse is a step up.
So where did Ellis hear "Kiss my..."? Has she been wandering the halls of Riverton High?
ReplyDeleteNo Clue - it's not something we say around here.
ReplyDelete100 Diet Cokes in the purse is simply good emergency preparedness.
ReplyDeleteAmen Arianne!
