Milking It For All Its Worth

(Leila hits her head on the fireplace)

(Cries)

Leila:  "Need bandaid mom!"

Mom:  "You can't put a bandaid between your eyes.  Want some ice?"

Leila:  "Yeah.  Need ice!"

Mom:  "OK."

(Gets ice)

Leila: (sad face) "Need movie.  Make it feel better."

Mom:  "You need a movie to help it feel better?"

Leila: (sad face) "Yeah....WonderPets....save the goldfish."

(Mom laughs a little...and decides to turn it on for her)

Leila: (sad face) "And need b." (blankie)

(Mom gets her b)

Leila: (sad face) "And soft b."  (another soft blanket on her bed)

Mom:  "No.  I think you're ok now."

Missing Daddy

Leila says pretty much every day...

"Daddy...pick up me...Tuesday."

(or another random day)

Old People

Me and Leila were playing on the swings.

Leila:  "Underdog!"

Me:  "OK."

(Push her and go back to my swing)

(Twist myself on the swing)

(Leila looks at me)

Leila:  "No twist mom.  You old people.  Get dizzy."
