Conversations with Coco

Coco: Who's your mom again?

Me: Grandma.

Coco: Who's her mom again?

Me: Grandma B, but remember, she just went to heaven.

Coco: Because she was really old?

Me (sad): Yeah. Pretty much. She was really old.

Coco: Am I going to get old?

Me: Oh, Coco, we're ALL going to get old, but it will be a VERY long time before you get old.

Coco: I don't want to get old!!

Me: I don't either!!!

Coco: But you're almost ALREADY old. You're 44.

Me: I AM NOT!!!!!!!!!! I'm 34!!

Coco: I was close! There's a 4 in it!


Nothing quite like being instantaneously aged a decade. Again. Should I be developing a complex?!

34 representing. At least for the next three weeks and then I will be 102. Aging sucks.

Kate told me I turned 23 yesterday. That was her gift to me and I graciously accepted it. Then Josh corrected her. Why?!! Why would he do that???????

Do you want to borrow my hypnotic earrings?

Well if you didn't teach her to count that high it would not be a problem. I am stopping at number 20 with Kade. Hopefully this will keep me from going though this same experience!

Oh, who cares, we'll still be doing the same thing when we are 84...that we do when we are 34. Drinking and laying by the pool. What's the diff?
