Cute Talk

Tori just loves to talk. A lot of the stuff that she says is really funny and I keep telling myself that I need to write them down, since I tend to forget them after a day or two. So, here are a few things that she has said lately:


Tori asked me the other day if she could do soccer again in the spring and I said she would probably have to wait until summer, since we'll be in Des Moines for one of John's away rotations for most of the spring. Des Moines happens to be where the closest Costco is to us (about a 2 hr drive) - we've actually made the drive a couple times, since we love Costco. Another day Tori was driving with John in the car and they had this conversation:

Tori: "Dad, I don't get to play soccer this spring, I have to wait until summer."

Dad: "Why is that?"

Tori: "Because we're going to live at Costco."


Different cute comment:

John was teaching Tori about some of the different parts of your body the other day and she was just loving it:

Dad: "Where's your heart?"

Tori points to her chest.

Dad: "What does it do?"

Tori: "It's full of your love. And then you can just give it out to other people."

The other day in the car:
While all driving together in the car, I make some joke or say something funny and John starts to laugh and then says to Tori, "Tori, your mom is funny." Tori then says, "But, Dad you married her, so you have to keep the funny mommy."

Tori really loves her preschool - so much that sometimes I wonder if maybe I'm just a really boring mom. Right before the holidays I was explaining to her about how she was going to have a "winter break" from preschool and then she said, "I hate winter breaks." I felt better though, when she went to start school again after the break she said to me the morning before preschool, "Mom, I love you even more than my preschool." I felt very loved.
