Out of the mouths of babes...

Last week we finally removed the Christmas tree from the house, my husband enjoyed having it up but over the last month I had started removing the ornaments and packing them away until next Christmas. As my husband was taking my daughter to preschool Friday morning she gave out a little sigh, my husband asked her what the matter was to which she replied "The Christmas tree is all alone and he's crying"

My husband pointed out that the Christmas tree wasn't alone, that there were many tree's around. "Your right she said, he's not crying anymore he's happy.

That night although she seemed to be acting like her usual giggly self, she promptly stopped and vomited on the living room rug twice, once in the bathroom, and then projectile vomited once more on the living room floor. Then she ran around like nothing happened. However she did end up coughing her head off for about three hours after.

Saturday morning she lounged on the couch, she had a fever that got up to 102.00 and you could just tell that she didn't feel well at all. She didn't want to drink and she hardly ate anything at all. She just cuddled up on my lap for the better part of the day.

On Sunday she was her usual self and went to the grocery store with my husband, where she had gotten a treat. My husband bought her a small bag that contained three ring pops, I cringed when I saw the sticky treat but she had behaved well and earned them. At one point my husband said to her "I proposed to Mommy with a ring pop", my daughters face lit up with joy and responded "That's lovely"

Later that evening as my daughter and husband were in the kitchen cooking up something yummy, my husband jokingly put a chip clip in my daughters hair. Her response? "No Daddy, only elastics go in the hair" then she looked at him seriously and said "Let me tell you something about elastics" and proceeded to explain to him how they worked.

She is far too cute.
