Kitchen Affection

I am officially raising a full fledged drama queen. This afternoon, Kyra was sitting at the table eating some yogurt for a snack while I was feeding Siana some cereal. All of a sudden, she looks at me wistfully and says with great emotion, "I just love this kitchen." I looked at her a bit strangely and said, "You love our kitchen?" She looked back and said with what appeared to be nostalgia and said just as dramatically, "Yes. I love this kitchen." So I decided to play along and asked, "What do you love about the kitchen?" She thought a moment and replied, "The windows." I chuckled and said, "You like the windows?" She said yes and I asked her what else she liked about the kitchen. She then said, "I love when I come into the kitchen after school. I just really love this kitchen." Alrighty then.

To which her Mother replied, head bopping, to the tune of Ice Ice Baby....

"Love that window......(I really) Love that Window!

All right stop, I really love my window
Love lookin out it when nobody looks in though
At night, gotta close the blinds tightly...."

Any interested parties can request me to print the entire song, penned by Angela Bruce in the wee hours of this morning after a caffeine jolt at Starbucks. If singing Accapella insert Siana's pirate "Arghuh" at any intervals that seem a little dead due to the lack of proper instrumentation.

To Ms. Kasselman, I must say: Well done. That definitely sounds like something Angie would do. To Angie, just think! It could be worse. She could have a fond affection for...the toilet or something. :) Windows are a blessing!

All Right then! Guess I definitely left too soon!

I miss you and Kyra's sweet drama-ness. Maybe it's just her way of telling you that she has adjusted to being in a new place.

How do I know? I said that same sort of thing to my mom shortly after moving--for the umpteenth time. Only I was 18! :)

Love you,
Mama

I admit it...it's a curse. I can make up a song on the spur of the moment with a topic as mundane as a window. Guilty. And Kasselman, your status on my Favorite Bloggers list is in serious jeopardy. =)

Take me off your favorite bloggers list and I'll call Kyra to put me back on while you are sleeping...
