Katelyn's wit

Pulling Katelyn out of bed for Breanna's 2nd day of Choral Festival, waaaaaay too early, she laid there seemingly still asleep and motionless for quite a while.  Finally, after much poking and prodding, she said, "This is how it works.  You have to carry me to the restroom."

Then on the way there, I was telling Breanna I was going to leave in plenty of time to come pick her up on time, since I didn't want to be late.  I guess she was preparing Breanna for the possibility of us being late anyway, and her getting worried, so Katelyn wisely told her, "If you start to cry, try to stop crying."

Drama Mama

As Katelyn walked off the bus today, she put her hand up and said, with great dramatic flair, "Worst day of my life!" When I asked why, she said they didn't get activity time because the boys in class were misbehaving. Sad that happened, but her drama was so hysterical that as I walked around the car to get in my side, I had a pretty good laugh. 

Things you never thought you'd hear your 5 year old say...to your husband...

What are you doing?  WHAT ARE YOU DOING?  Aw, you farted on my leg!!  You're not allowed to fart in my room, and THAT'S THE LAW!!!

Tally Marks

Katelyn is having trouble remembering that when you make tally marks, the 5th one should slash across the other 4, showing you a nice little group of 5 that's easier to count.  She got frustrated, and said, "That's why I don't like Italian marks!!"  :-)
