So while my parents were babysitting today, SpazMonkey ws studying the calendar, hesitated, then came flying to the family room:
SM: DRAMAQUEEN, WE’RE NOT FIVE YET!
DQ: yes we are.
SM: NO WE’RE NOT!
DQ: uh huh.
SM: NO, DQ, THAT’S NOT RIGHT!
Oma: of course you are five. your birthday was the 16th and today is the 20th. go look at the calendar and I will show you.
then my mom noticed there were no x’s from the 14th – 20th… and she got it. she told him the days just didn’t get crossed off the calendar and gave him a pencil.
SM: A PENCIL’S NOT SO GOOD. I NEED A SHARPIE.
oma: a pencil is fine.
SM: DQ, WE GOTTA MAKE THE X SO WE CAN GROW UP!
