Breakfast Conversations

Both MB and K got me good with conversations this morning over breakfast.

First MB and I were working together to fix breakfast for everyone this morning. She makes a mean batch of pancakes. I told her how wonderful it was to have help in the kitchen.

MB -- "This is what we do."

Me -- 'What?"

MB -- "Women's Work"

I like being in the kitchen and preparing meals - but so does my husband. Granted, his are always more on the gourmet, restaurant style - but he likes to be in there too. I have never referred to what I do as "women's work." So I am not sure where she is getting this from. But, while she is enjoying "women's work" I have about 2 loads of laundry I would be willing to share.

After we sat down at the table to eat MB asked me a question about our wedding (DH's & mine). K's eyes got really big and she looked at me like she had never seen me before "You not married to daddy!"

Me -- "yes, your daddy and I are married."

K -- "no, no, no! I gonna marry daddy! You not married."

And, yes, K is daddy's little girl.

I don't think MB and I ever could convince K that daddy and I were married. Of course later in the day MB asked me if daddy could have married one of his sisters. I didn't say it - but I did think for just a moment replying with "no, we don't live in Alabama ;) "

Peace,

Amy
