Funny Memories of Baby Girl

Updated: Sep 29

In April 2014, I was caring for the two of you while your mom recuperated from surgery. You were 3 and 7 years old. I am CBC (childless by choice). And I believe I am a pretty smart woman. However, WHAT was I thinking when I gave you, a 3-year-old, some chocolate right before bed?

While bathing you, you laughed hysterically the entire time. As I attempted to put on your pajamas, you were quacking and walking like a duck. Before putting you to bed, you asked me if I was going to remain upstairs with you. I told you, “No, I am going to spend some time with my husband.” You asked (in a shocked voice), “You have a husband?” (By the way, you love your uncle and had just spent a half-hour with him learning your time-tables. However, you forgot that he’s also my husband). LOL!

The next time I give a 3-year-old some sugar right before bed, someone needs to punch me in my face – and I won’t press charges. LOL! #ILoveMyGirls  #WhatWasIthinking
