Conversations with Jill

Because we all need to smile, here are some recent Jill conversations. She really does speak in complete sentences most of the time.

Set scene: I am sitting in the bathroom. (No where is sacred to these children!)

Door opens.

Jill enters.

Jill: "Mommy, will you pick up Danny?"

Me: "Oh, did he fall over?"

Jill: "Yeah, I pushed him over."

Me: "Oh, that was not very nice."

Jill: "Yeah, I pushed him over." This is said while she kicks foot out.

Me: "Did you push him with your foot?"

Jill: "Yeah with my foot."

Me: "Jill, that hurts Danny. Please don't push him."

Jill: "Okay. I will push myself."

Me: "Oh, well, be nice to yourself, but let me know how that works out for you."

Jill exits the bathroom.

An "ow" is heard from the other room.

Danny with both of his grandmas

Cousins: Annibelle, Emily, Jill, and Callie

Danny with his grandpa Boling (Pappy)

Set scene: I am sitting at the kitchen table. My mother is warming up a meal one of the kind people from our church brought.

Jill enters the room.

Jill: "I need some dinner."

Me: "Are you hungry? Bunny is getting some soup ready."

Jill: "I don't like soup."

Me: "Jill, you like taco soup."

Jill: "No, I don't."

Me: "Yes, you do."

Jill: "I don't like soup."

Me: "Jill, remember how we had tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches the other day? You ate lots of that soup."

Jill: "Yeah, but I didn't like it."

Conversation ended, because Bunny and Mommy were laughing too hard.
