darndest things

Last night, B & I were putting on Mina's pjs (yes, it take 2 people) and because she wasn't fighting us with the normal eye-gouging screamfest, we clapped our hands & said (in high falsettos) "Oh Mina! Look at you! What a big girl you are!" To which she glowered and said "Big Boy!"

Around 11:30pm, I heard some crying from Mina's room. I went in & found her all turned around, twisting in her blankets. I said "shhh, it's okay." In a very sad voice, she said one word: "Bubbles."

Either she was dreaming about them or she wanted me to blow them, I don't know. But the last week or so she has been obsessed with bubbles.

"go omama!"
