A Conversation with Ava

Conversations at bedtime always start like this.




Ava: What happens if I need you or Daddy?




Me: Then you just call for us.




Ava: What happens if there is an emergency?




Me: Then call us.




(This particular night continued on with the following conversation.)




Ava: What kinds of things are emergencies?




Me: Well, if you had to go potty or felt like you were going to throw up. Those would be emergencies.




Ava: What about a fire? Is that an emergency?




Me: Yes, a fire is an emergency.




Ava: What about a bad man in the house? Is that an emergency?




Me: Yes, but we have the doors locked so no bad people can get in.




Ava: What about a twisten (tornado)? Is that an emergency?




Me: Yes, but there are no storms tonight.




Ava: What about a meteor? Is that an emergency?




Me: (laughing uncontrollably) Yes, that would be an emergency, but it is definitely not happening. Now go to sleep and if you need me, call.




I love this sweet girl who always keeps me laughing and who is so unpredictable!

Daily December Catch-Up

Here are some more photos of my December Daily book. I am almost finished, just need to find the time to print a few more photos and then I will be finished. I am very happy with how it has shaped up. Now if I can only keep up with it a little better next year (if the sickness will stay away!).
