Yesterday, after church, I sat down to put my feet up. Makenna came over and took off my shoes. I was thinking, how sweet, then she starts spreading my toes apart and picking at them! She said, "Hold still, mommy, I get your toe jam!"
So lately, Parker has been totally obsessed with "toe jam" (And no...that is not a cute word for anything else). As soon as he walks into the house, he takes off his shoes and socks and picks the toe jam out of his toes. He even will put his socks on and then just minutes later, they are off again and he is back at it! One time, I saw him repeat that process 4 times...I guess he thinks that everytime you put on a sock, you get instant toe jam! A couple of days ago, he was wearing a new pair of socks and he took them off, got a BIG smile on his face and said, "Ooohhh ya, LOTS of toe jam!"
So on our way to Parker's preschool, this is what took place. Makenna is an up and coming driver. She always tells me when to go or to go faster. Now that she has learned that red means stop and green means go, this is the conversation she and Parker had......
Makenna: Mommy, go faster...green means go, go, go, mommy go!
Parker: Makenna, what does red mean?
Makenna: "Kar Kar" red means stop (with her hand up)
Parker: Makenna, what does yellow mean?
Makenna: SSSSLLLLOOOOWWWW DDDDOOOOWWWWNNNN
Makenna: "Kar Kar" orange means slow down too!
Parker: No it doesn't...there is no orange light (he was totally annoyed)
****Then, we drive through a new traffic light where the yellow looks orange*****
Makenna: See "Kar Kar" Orange means slow down! (her voice many decibles louder)
Parker: Oh
It was silent the rest of the way! By the way, How come my kids even saw the orange light, I thought orange means to slow down, not to go faster!
