I'm Pretty Sure That's Not How She Meant It

POST UPDATE 3/14: I failed to point out that after saying the laying thing, my eyes got really wide and I looked at Kiki, she realized what she had said and was HORRIFIED, that's why it's funny, because she didn't mean it that way.


I've been meaning to blog about something funny Kiki said the other day. I just keep FORGETTING. Tonight I had our friends kids after school and I was baking bread and cookies for the kids and then, at 3:30, I remembered that I was in charge of taking dinner to an elderly couple and I wasn't even MAKING dinner because Douglas had invited us over for dinner, so I had NOTHING planned yet and I panicked wondering what in the world I could even make for these lovely people PLUS I had to take Kiki to a meeting 20 minutes away at 5:30 and I didn't even know if Chris would be HOME by that time, so what was I going to do with all of those kids? During all of that my kids were filling me in on their days and the two youngest hadn't napped and I thought I might lose my mind. It was then that my oldest decided to remind me that I STILL haven't blogged that story yet. I kindly asked her to outline it for me and save it as a draft so that I wouldn't forget, and then I would log back on when I had time and write it in my own words. When I pulled up her draft I decided that I like it so much I can't change a thing. I know that she was trying to make me laugh with some of the things she said, but that's part of what I love about it. This is a true story, in her own words....



I was talking to my amazing super hot smart daughter Mackenzie the other night. We were talking about the chickens, I was explaining to her that if we got desperate enough we actually COULD NOT eat the chickens because they're not that kind. I told her that our chickens were laying chickens and not eating chickens. She then responded "Like me! You couldn't eat me, I'm just used for laying." She's so funny and smart.....and single.(insert our phone number here)



I wonder if she's going to kill me for posting it as is.
