Before BFF's

When Amanda was about 3, maybe 4 years old ... before she knew the term 'Best Friend', or 'BFF', she came to me and did her best to express how she was feeling about her buddy Lauren, whom she'd known since birth ...

Amanda: Mom?

Me: Yeah?

Amanda: Lauren is my Best Hug.

Me: Yes, she is, isn't she?

Everyone should have a Best Hug.

P Who?

It's not uncommon to hear Meg singing a song around the house.

HOWEVER, I was a little surprised to hear this the other day ...

Megan singing, well, rapping actually: I wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy. I put my sunglasses on, gonna' hit the city.

Me: Excuse me?

Megan: What?

Me: What do you know about P Diddy?

Megan: Who's P Diddy?

Me: Sean Combs. The guy you're singing about.

Megan: Huh?

Me: I mean, Sean Puff Daddy Combs.

Megan: Who's THAT?!

Me: P Diddy.

Megan: Huh?

Me: Never mind.

I wonder if Mr. Sean Puff Daddy Puffy P Diddy Combs realizes yet how ridiculous he is.

From God's Lips

Wow. Thursday morning was bright and sunny!! On the drive to school, Amanda chose to look out the back window of the car instead of out the front windshield, so as not to burn her eyeballs to a crisp.

Amanda: Ugh! Why is it SO SUNNY?!

Me: I dunno, ask God.

5 second silence.

Amanda: He said because He felt like it.

Me: Well there ya go.
