You look at yourself, and the choices you've made and wonder: who have I become?
And is any of this real?

shedding
I've let go of a lot of beliefs over the years, and I am content with my choice to leave most of them behind. Some though, I just can't desert because they make up such a huge part of my understanding of how to function as a person in this world, even if I sound crazy talking about it.

things kids say
"Abby feels like a pig."
"What do you mean?"
"She was born in a pig. I was born in a dog."
"My doctor said I'm not getting enough calcium since I stopped eating cereal, so I need a constant supply of milk at night."
"My dad made his world famous chili, and by world famous, I mean world famous. And well, by that I mean it could be."
"I'm looking for a princess to marry, would you want to marry me?"
"We can meet later, I'm busy now."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I have to get busy now."
"I've asked all the princesses and no one wants to marry me. I guess I'll get my horse and go live by the river."
"Go back home and cry."
"I wish I wasn't a spider."
"But you're not a spider."
"If I was I wish I wasn't a spider."
"You have a best friend? Just like I have a best friend? Oh, that's very nice Kai. We could be sisters."
"You're my dad and you growed up to be a real princess."
"They call her a toy poodle, but she's really a real dog."
Guessing game with a 2-year-old (and her 4-year-old sister):
Me: I'm thinking of something that is black and white.
2-year-old: Blue!
Me: No, not blue. Can you think of something that has the colors black and white?
2-year-old: Yellow!
Me: Not yellow.
2-year-old: I give up.
