Conversations with Abigail.

 

(outside the dentist's office)

Today Abbie and I were out enjoying the October weather in the backyard and the conversation went a little something like this:

A:  "Mama, when Caleb (little neighbor boy that moved away) was over here playing there was a big bumblebee on the slide"

M:  "wow, that's scary"

A:  "Caleb stomped on it, he saved my life mom - like i was a princess"

M:  "Caleb was a nice friend"

A:  "Ya, i don't love him, but i miss him"

Tonight i was putting Abbie to bed and she was a little restless (surprise surprise) 

M:  "Abbie, it's time to go to sleep"

A:  "mama, do you want to feel my heartbeat?"

M:  "yes i do"  

i put my hand on her chest

A:  "do you hear it beating to the beat?"

M:  "yes i hear it.  It's time for bed now sweetheart"

A:  "mama, can i feel your heartbeat?"

M:  "yes you can"

she puts her hand on my chest

A:  "wow, your heart is beating to the beat too"

These two crack me up.  I took these pictures after we painted our nails
