Kids say the darndest things..... part II

When Paul was single he used to join some friends and their kids once a week for dinner. They had this tradition where they shared "Highs & Lows", in other words the best part of your day and the low point of your day. I decided to steal their idea and started the ritual last night. Read on for the transcript.....

Mommy: "Brooke, what was the best part of your day?"
Brooke: "I made the boo boo on Storm's head better"
Mommy: "That wasn't today, that was a few days ago. What was the best thing about today?"
Brooke: "I sure had fun on that business trip."

*** We just returned from 8 days in Orlando, business for me, fun for Brooke, Kristen, Gigi, and Poppa ***

Mommy: "That wasn't today either. Was the best part of today? eating lunch? playing with your friends? making your butterfly craft?"
Brooke: "Making the butterfly craft." Ah, finally we are getting somewhere
Mommy: "What was the worst part of your day? I bet I know, it was when you slipped on the rocks by the turtle pond and fell. Was that the worst part of today?
Brooke: "Yeah, that was the worst."

Ok, she is starting to get this ...... We talked about how fun it will be when Kristen can talk more and tell us about her best/worst parts of the day.

Mommy: "Now its Mommy's turn - what was the best part of Mommy's day"
Brooke:(before I even have a chance to contemplate)"When you picked me up - that was the best part of your day, Mommy!"

Hard to find a low after that .................
