More Maddie-isms

Lots of posts today. It's very late and I am too hyped up to sleep, so I am posting enough for the month. See you in November!!

Here's more that's come out of Maddie's mouth, lately:

(dedicated to my brother Jim, family nickname Jimmer, and his wife, Amy)

Mad: Mom, do you know why Jimmer married Amy?
Me: Why?
Mad: Because I told him to!!


Mad: Mommy, you'll never believe this. I am saying this for real. There are people in my class who have boyfriends and girlfriends. You're not supposed to have those until you are a teenager.
Me: Actually, you're not supposed to have those until you are 30.

Ok, here's what I really said--

You are absolutely right. I'm very proud of you, Maddie.

Mad: I used to sit next to *********, but we talked too much, so Mrs. Cutler moved me next to **** *************.
Me: So, you and **** ************* don't talk.
Mad: No, we talk, we just don't get caught.


meaning of *********** --I am not inclined to post the names of other children in her class without parental permission. Also, I am too lazy at the moment to create fake names.
