Last night it was my night to put Esme to bed. We read a book called Wump World that we got from the library. I understand the idea behind the book and Lord knows I'm all about the environment when I can be. But let me just tell you that this book was simply depressing... Moving on.
After reading, Esme and I snuggled for a bit. She always says "put your arm around me to keep me safe" while she's falling asleep. So we always lay on our sides, and I put my arm around her. We make a great spoon! But last night I just couldn't get comfortable so I told her that I was going to lay on my stomach next to her. Pretty soon she decided to lay on her stomach too. I said "now we are the same!" And her response?
"Mom, you know the apple doesn't fall far from the tree..."
What the????????? :) The fact that she knows that quote and can recite it without making any mistakes just floors me!
And then she fell asleep.
