A Matter of Interpretation

It’s bad enough to overhear your daughter comparing the “really cool pool with a huge slide and even a hot tub” that she has in her very own backyard to a friend’s country club pool.

It’s even worse when this is what she’s talking about:

Me thinks we may have more than a few disappointed playmates this summer.

That is soooo funny!! At least you know she is completely content with her pool and slide!! I had something similar when I was little until my brother decided to put his hedgehog in it. Lets just say it no longer was an inflatable pool :(. Your kids are adorable and your blog makes me smile!

Nah, throw in a couple of ice pops and maybe even some Kool Aid, me thinks water and blow up toys make for a wonderful combination, always!

Oh my gosh, that’s too awesome! Before we got our F150, all we had was our little Ford Ranger. (No, really, when you look it up on urban dictionary, one of the definitions is “The Ultimate Mini Truck.”) My oldest, Anaya, thought it was the hugest thing ever. She would always tell people, “I’m going to ride in the big truck! We have a big truck! You should come see our big truck!” The day we got our F150, she looked at it, then looked at the Ranger (husband’s truck), looked at Daddy, “Daddy, you have a little truck. *Mommy’s* got the big truck now.”
