Does anyone remember the great waffle debate I had with one of my foster children? My beloved Zoe Monster is now with my best friend... I had to let the children go after my mom moved in with lung cancer, right? She still has them because... lots of reasons.
Here is the original breakfast conversation I had with Zoe Monster last March.
As heard from the breakfast table this morning:
What you doing?
Making waffles for Karen.
Why?
Cause she's hungry.
Why?
Cause she just woke up.
Why?
Cause she was done sleeping.
So she huny?
Yes.
Zoe huny too.
Zoe already ate.
Why?
Cause you woke up at 6am.
Why?
God only knows.
What are you making?
Waffles!
I have wappoos too?
Okay.
Why?
(gritted teeth.) Cause you wanted some.Here.
Tank you.What are you doing?
Making a waffle for Karen cause the one I made us was too hard for her so I am making her a soft one.
Why?
Cause she can't chew a hard one.
Why?
Cause she doesn't have enough teeth.
Auntie? What are you giving Karen?
Waffles!
Why?
(Silence)
Auntie?
What Zoe?
What are you eating?
This is my dear friend Ann having a morning conversation with the Zoe Monster just this morning. (as taken from her blog http://afriedrick.blogspot.com/)
Monster: Teri had that kinda cereal
Me: Good
Monster: It good cereal
Me: Yep
Monster: Teri sit on the patio with me and eat her cereal
Me: Yep
Monster: Teri nice
Me: Yep
Monster: I like dat cereal
Me: silent
Monster: Can I had that cereal?
Me: No
Monster: Why?
Me: You wanted Life
Monster: I don’t want life. I want dat cereal
Me: Sorry, you’ll have to eat what you asked for
Monster: Teri give me dat cereal afore
Me: I’m sure she did
Monster: What it taste like?
Me: cereal
Monster: Teri like dat cereal
And on and on and on it went. I am not a morning person. Someone shoot me please.
Proof positive that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Wow! I am glad that before everyone else awakes I am away so that I can avoid morning conversations. I experienced that with my sister, when she was like 5. It was horrifying!
Just remember, you promised to shoot me if I came over this morning. You PROMISED.
Oh and in case you missed it, KK now says, "Why?" to eevverrryythhiinngg....
One bullet, right between my eyes, that's all I ask.
