- Kiara had asked to have fruit punch with lunch but then she came in the kitchen carrying a cream soda. I guess I looked surprised because she offered the following explanation:
"I don't want to drink fruit punch or else I would turn in to a red, juicy pear. I'll just drink this so I can stay brown."
- "Mom, when I grow up I want to be an ice skater because I love eating your ice from Sonic!"
- I was making dinner the other night when Kiara said, "Wow Mom, you're a great stirrer! When I grow up I want to be a Mommy just like you so I can stir things!"
- One of Kiara's braids fell out while she was in bed the other night. She came running downstairs yelling, "Mom! My hair fell out of my hair!"
- Ben has a bad habit of finishing Kiara's food or drinks before she's done with them and it's made her a little paranoid and protective. She had earned a root beer the other night but hadn't finished it by bed-time. I told her she could save it and have it the next day but she was worried that Ben would drink it when he got home from work that night. She decided she better write him a note telling him not to drink it and put it on the root beer can, just in case :)
