Help from Big Sister

Abby tries to teach Lily everything she knows.  Here she is being very helpful and reading to Lily while Lily sits on the potty chair.

2 year old's thoughts

Lily seems to be exceptionally verbal for her age.  As a result we get insights into her thoughts at an age we didn't know what Abby was thinking.   Today before nap time she told me (or maybe just mused out loud) "When I get a little bigger, I'll fly into the sky."

Conversation I never expected to have

Abby: Aliens aren't real, right?
Mama: Well, no one really knows, but most people don't believe they are real.
Abby: Not even ballerinas?
Mama: Ballerinas don't have any special alien knowledge.
Abby: Really? Why not?

Jetlag

We got back from CA two days ago and last night we had a very hard time getting the girls to bed.  We had this conversation at 11:30pm.

Mama: It's really late! You need to go to sleep because I want to go to sleep.  It's after your bedtime in California!

Abby (completely seriously): Is it after my bedtime in Funkytown?
