You light up my life...

Aria is talking more & more everyday, but life is also getting crazier & busier. Still, I couldn't let this gem go... So this morning, Aria swaggers up to me like she owns the joint (which she does, very obviously). She matter-of-factly hands me a piece of white paper with many a colored scribble on it. I'm pretty sure she's used every crayon possible. Me: Oh, what's this honey? Aria: It's a match. I see you don't have a match. So you can use my match. Me: A match? What do you mean a match? We lighting something on fire? 5 minutes later (literally): Aria: *exasperated with me* NO, it's a match!! To get to Bobo's house! Because you don't know the way. Me: OHHHHHHHH....a map!!! To get to Vovo's house! Aria: Yeah, that's what I said!

Well, One's a Tuxedo...

I realize it's been over a month since the last update, but that's only because way too much stuff's been happening in our household. Nonetheless, believe me, Aria's still keeping up the doozies...

A little background: My mother (Aria's Vavo, or grandmother), has a cat named Muffin. We have a tuxedo cat named Simon.

We just got home, & it's just Aria & I, & the conversation goes like this:

Aria: *gasp* The cupcakes cousin Sarah made are gone! Oh no! No more treats!
Me: Well, maybe this weekend, I can make some muffins for you.
*without missing a beat*...
Aria: No....you should make Simons.
Me: What?? What do you mean, 'make Simons'. I said muffins. Like blueberry muffins.
Aria: No, you make blueberry Simons. Vavo makes muffins. She feeds her every day.
