PCPops is on a roll. Another couple doozies came out of her mouth today.
"Everyone loves Mommy...even God!"
Wow. Thanks for the vote of confidence. The all-loving Creator who keeps everyone under His care even loves me!
~~~
PCPops asked me who I would choose to die in our family. After I replied, "No one." She shook her head, "Mommy, you have to pick someone."
Me: Okay, I pick myself.
PCPops: (incredulously) You would pick you? (without a pause or a breath) I would pick Daddy. (Poor Daddy is sitting across from her at the table, mouth agape at the brutality just issued from his beautiful, smiling, cheerful red-headed daughter.)
Me: Daddy?! Why would you pick Daddy?
PCPops: When he died I would take his money. Probably $25! With $25 I could buy you a new mouse pad (she bit a hole in my gel-filled ergonomic mouse pad) and still have maybe $5!
Before the thoughts of "How in the world has she learned to off someone to get their money?" and "What have I done to fail this child so completely?" finished scrolling through my brain she had already changed the subject to some completely nonsensical and silly topic.
She's five. And when you've got a question that needs to be answered, you answer it with all the logic that your half-a-decade old brain can summon.
Let's just hope for her sake that Daddy doesn't "accidently" drink rat poison and we find ourselves $25 short in our bank account...
