Me: Okay.

L.: What? What you sayin’, Mommy?

Me: Okay!

L.: What? I can’t hear you! Mommy, I can’t hear what you’re sayin’. What?

Me: I said, Okay!!

L: What? What you sayin’? Mommy? WHAT YOU SAYIN’?

    I’ve had those conversations with my mother, and she was just sitting a few feet from me! AND yet, I can be talking in a low voice with my husband, and she will hear every word we didn’t want her to hear.

  8. Overheard in my tween daughter’s room this morning (as I’m trying to get her out of bed closer to the time that she’s going to have to get up for school next week):

    Mom — running through schedule for the day and expectations (probably BLAH BLAH BLAH to tween).

    Tween — What time is my friend coming over?

    Mom — 3pm

    Pause

    Tween — What time did you say? I wasn’t really listening.

    Jared would do the same thing. Then my mom would just play with him when he keeps saying over and over.
