Here’s a couple conversations with my son from the last 24 hours. He is 4 years old:

—————————————————-

Me: Did you save me any chocolate bar?

Beast: No…

Me: You don’t love me!

Beast: I do love you, but my body wanted chocolate.

Me: My body wants chocolate, too.

Beast: Don’t reach into my mouth and get some ’cause it’ll have my germs on it.

—————————

Beast to his father: I give momma big kisses ’cause she’s a hot momma.

——————————————–

Beast: I want chicken nuggets.

Me: You can’t have chicken nuggets for breakfast.

Beast: When the little hand gets on the 12, then can I have chicken nuggets?

Me: Yes, that’s right, you’re very smart.

Beast: Yeah, I should just go right to middle school.

Me: Laughing

Beast: Wait, do they have chicken nuggets at middle school?

(He hasn’t even started kindergarten yet!)

Lesson learned: I want every single one of you pregnant and toddler mommas to resolve right now to buy a $1 notebook from the store and pop it into your purse. From the moment your child starts talking, I want you to write down anything that you want: endearing, funny, whatever. Don’t count on putting them in a baby book, as those are commonly shelved once your baby starts talking, plus you can’t carry it with you!

I guarantee it will be one of your most treasured possessions. You will regret not doing this!
