Some gems from Miss Mila. Because it’s been a while. And because she is funnier than I am. You’re welcome.
After watching this bad lipreading video for Twilight:
Her: “What is dat movie about?”
Me: “It’s about a girl who thinks she needs a boyfriend to be happy.”
Her: “But she has a daddy?”
Me: “Yes, she does.”
Her: “Daddies are boys. So dat’s like a boyfriend.”
Me: “Sort of…”
Her: “If she has a daddy den she can be happy.”
Me: …

Thinking about how yoga the previous day had been way harder than it should’ve been:
Me: “Man, my bum is sore this morning!”
Her: “Maybe you didn’t wipe your bum bery good.”
Me: …

Hearing David and I discussing what a big flirt Margot is:
Me: “She’s already got such a personality…we’re gonna be in so much trouble.”
Her: “But I don’t want my sister to have a personality!”
Running into the living room fresh out of the bathtub:
Her: “Nakie buns power!!!”
Me: *all the laughing*

In the car while running errands:
Her: “I saw a bee truck!”
Me: “You saw a what?”
Her: “A bee truck.”
Me: “Like, with the letter B or a picture of a bee?”
Her: “A picture of one. A busy buzzy busy buzzy bee-biddle-oo-diddle-dee. A. Bee. Truck.”
Me: “Well all right then.”

Trying to plan ahead even though I still hadn’t finished Christmas shopping yet:
Me: “What shall we get Daddy for his birthday?”
Her: “Um…maybe not soggy socks.”
Me: …

Checking on the girls because they were being suspiciously quiet:
Me: “What are you guys up to?”
Her: “Me and Margot are going to see da temple lights to see if dere is any creatures stirring in da darkness.”
This child. She kills me dead. And I don’t know about you, but I’m a leetle bit nervous now about creatures stirring in the darkness. Yikes.
Alicia Snow says
Well she's right, soggy socks would be a terrible gift.
jenbosen says
True. But knowing that is not especially helpful either.
Elise Frederickson says
This legitimately made me laugh out loud. I like her.
jenbosen says
She keeps me laughing all the time. I like her too.
