Lie Lie, The Lion

Lie Lie, The Lion

K, you have taken to saying “Lie Lie” at least a few times a day.

Nothing about lying, or telling the truth though.

You are learning to say “Lion.”

See, we watched the intro to The Lion King the other day.

Quickly, it has become your favorite thing to watch on TV.

Ok, it is not your favorite thing on TV.

It is the ONLY thing you are remotely interested in on TV.

You point at the TV at least once per day and say with the sweetest little voice:

“Lie lie?”

What can I say?

You are right.

It is an epic movie intro.

My girl.

I love you.

On The Ground With Bunnies

On The Ground With Bunnies

Some things are obviously good, some bad, – being with bunnies is, of course, in the former.

So yesterday we went to a friends house to watch the Super Bowl.

It was a 5 or 10-minute drive and both of you kids seemed excited to go and be out of the house.

On the way H, you started talking.

I do not remember exactly what it was even about.

But soon the conversation moved to airplanes and flying.

As we slowed for a stop sign, you announced to the car.

“I am scared of going down in an airplane. But I am not scared of going on the ground with bunnies. Bunnies are so cute.”

You said it in a very matter-of-fact tone.

And K, you had the best time ever running and chasing the older kids around.

You both did.

You girls had a great night.

I love you.

Oh, Mamas-y, The Names Are So Precious

Oh, Mamas-e, The Names Are So Precious

K,

H calls you:

“K – Mamas-e.”

It’s her term of endearment for you.

I told you about the names getting out of hand.

My Kenny.

So the ladies at school started with the calling you “mamas.”

Then:

“K – mamas.”

Then a derivative was:

“Little mama.”

And now H has made it all her own.

She calls you:

“K – Mamas-e.”

Or I don’t even know.

Is it:

“K – Mamas-ee?”

“K – Mamas-y?”

Any way.

You are so sweet.

My growing baby.

I love you.

I love you forever.
