Audrey just asked me.... " mom back in the 50's and 80's was everything in the world black and white? Like the grass and houses and furniture?" Me: well I wasn't alive in the 50's but the world was always in color .... Just movies and TVs and photos were black and white!" how old does she think I am?

Audrey yelling from the other room...
Audrey: Mom what size clothes do I wear? 
Me: 7/8
Audrey: what size shoe?
Me: 2

30 minutes later she brings me her computer and says

Audrey: so what is your CC number? I was on the target website and was looking at clothes and shoes I wanted and I added them to the cart! 

Me: wha?!?! (Looking in disbelief) No, I'm not spending $198 on that stuff now.

Audrey: I think my heart just broke!

Me: I think you were breaking my wallet!

Yesterday we made homemade Red Velvet and chocolate chunk ice cream. Tonight, Olivia asks why with almost the same ingredients it takes so different then chocolate ice cream? I said "oh, do you know the history of Red Velvet from the depression?" She says "yes". Audrey says "Wait, Liv you read the bible?"

In our kitchen where most people would have a table to eat at we have an art table and small play kitchen for Audrey. As a result when the sun hits the floor in just the right way you can see all the glitter that has fallen to the floor and is impossible to get up. Today Audrey says to me "Mom I have a problem, but it's more like addiction, addiction to glitter I think it needs to be thrown away! But maybe not just right now, in a few months. I just love it!"
