03.06.11PersonalLaw and Order |
L indsey has a couple of nicknames for Layla. Most of the time we call her "Beans". Sometimes we refer to her as "Law and Order". Like her mom and her mom's mom she is very literal. Be very careful how you joke around with her, cross all the t's and dot the i's, don't color outside the lines, and never break any safety rules. If you do ... you will be confronted.
I have a confession to make - Karen and I skipped church this morning. It was raining hard and well, we were just lazy. I thought we had gotten away with it but guess who calls at 12:00 o'clock..."Law and Order". Our conversations went something like this: Layla: Hey Poppy Me: Hey Layla Layla: I had some chocolate this morning. (she always keeps me updated on her chocolate consumption) Me: Good, did it make you happy? Layla: Yes but it wasn't very big. Me: Well we'll just have to do something about that! How was your church this morning? Layla : Good, how was your's? *awkward pause* Karen (the original Law and Order) is listening to the conversation and says we should tell her the truth--tell her we didn't go this morning. I think at this point, I started to buckle under the pressure. Me: Layla honey I didn't go to church this morning. Layla: (thick with disappointment) Why not Poppy? Karen to me: Tell her we were just lazy. Me to Layla: I was just lazy this morning. Layla: Oh my Poppy, I'm gonna have to pray for you. Today one thing became more obvious to me than ever.... I need my girls to keep me in line! |
