As trying & hard as my days can be with Parker lately, today has been a rather funny one full of sweet conversations.... Here are a few.
Lately, his new favorite question is the infamous "Why?" which he asks after EVERYTHING!! It was cute at first but can get a little wearing after hearing it a bagillion times a day! :)
A daily conversation with Parker:
Parker: "Where is Daddy?"
Me: "Daddy's at work."
Parker: "Why?"
Me: "Because that's what Daddy does during the day."
Parker: "Where's Michael?" (Michael is our J-High pastor and good friend who Parker adores!!)
Me: "Michael is at work along with Daddy."
Parker: "Why?"
Me: "Because that is also where Michael works."
Parker: "Why?"
..... and the cycle continues! :)
Then tonight, it was just Parker & I as we headed out to JCPenney's after cleaning up from dinner. I had to return some things and I've been on a mission to find him a napmat for Preschool that is REASONABLE! I found one online but of course they didn't have it at the store...
So anyways, I'm checking out at Penney's and Parker is sitting in his stroller watching me and the salesman "small talk". I noticed Parker staring at the man funny, so I said, "Parker, can you say Hi?" - but he just waved...He's still staring at the man & I as we are talking as he rang up my things. Then Parker looked at me and asked, "Momma...Who's that?" (What??? You're only 2!!)
So I then look at the salesman's nametag which was labeled "Richard" and I said, "His name is Richard. Can you say hello to Richard?" And Parker said in his sweet little voice & a huge grin on his face, "Hi Richard."
So I guess they are friends now... as we are walking away from the counter, Parker turns around in his seat and yells, "Bye Richard!"
SOOOO Hilarious!!
He can be SO funny & sweet WHEN HE WANTS TO BE!
