It’s never dull. While all of my children have been quite adorable and made absolutely side splitting comments on a semi-regular basis, Lorna has managed to do it on a semi-hourly basis.
Example du jour.
I take a showe this morning. I open the shower curtain and jump when I hear
“You’re out of the shower. You’re wet.”
Whew. It’s coming from the other side of the door.
“Yep. I’m wet.
The voice volleys back another stunningly brilliant observation.
“You are drying off.”
I glance at the towel that is now holding most of the water that covered me moments ago.
“Sure am.”
The small voice returns.
“You are spraying stuff on you.”
I stare at the can of deoderant and shake my head. Such talent for stating the obvious.
“That I am.”
Undaunted, the voice speaks again.
“You are putting on your unders. I hear you.”
Just how loud is it when one puts on ones unders? What distinct movements (I dont’ grunt I assure you) make sufficient noise to give away such state secrets?
“If you say so.”
“I do.”
I felt a little like Dory. “Are you my conscience?” No, I didn’t ask. I was afraid of the answer.

I’ve been meaning to ask you this for a long time. I recognize all of your children’s faces and can put names with most of them but your third daughter? She doesn’t look familiar to me at all? Why? Who is she?
Dana, who is forever in quest of knowledge ROFLOL
Dana,
Do you mean third from the top of the bar up there or third in actual birth order?
On the bar, that’s Kaylene. Birth order is Braelyn!

It was the titus2 board, but I can’t remember my handle. I’m obnoxious, outspoken, does that ring any bells?
