Conversations with Rachel
On the phone...no less
Her: "Hey Mom!"
Me: "Hi Sweet pea!"
Her: "What ya doin'?"
Me: "Uh...working. Are you having fun today?"
Her: "Yeah. It is ok. We went swimming in their new ice cold pool for like an hour and a half. I want my sweatshirt." (her sweatshirt is the new equivilant of her Deedee.)
Me: "So what did you get me for my birthday?" (I am completely kidding, of course)
Her: *sigh* "The last time I got you something it broke. Well, I guess I broke it cause I set it too hard on Grandmas table."
Me: "Yeah, but I could tell it was really pretty and I would have loved it."
Her: "Mom..." very monotoned and with hint of sarcasm...
Me: "Yeah?"
Her: "It was a glass. From the Dollar store."
Me: "Yeah, but it was hand painted and looked like it would have been beautiful. Besides, it came from you."
Her: "Yeah...ok...Whatever."
Me: "Alrighty then. Are you wanting to spend the night with Lindsey?"
Her: "I guess."
Me: "When her mom calls to ask me, do you want me to say No?"
Her: *giggles* "It's ok Mom...."
Our conversation went on for like another ten minutes or so. She talked about "stuff" and told me how certain "things" just Suck. It is funny to me to have these kinds of conversations with her. But I have to say it is fun.
