Conversations with Olive

Recently this is what can be heard if you were one of the many flies on our farmhouse wall.

O: Mom can I play with this (fruity chapstick her older cousin Hannah left over)?
Me: No, that's too messy and sticky.
O: Mom why I can't play with it mom?
Me: Because its sticky and gooey and will get your hands dirty.
O: Mom why it's gooey, I won't get dirty.
Me: Yes you will please put it down.
O: Otay mom.

Lately everything is all about why? Back and forth over and over again. Chas and I just look at each other after the 4th and 5th why and totally understand where, because I said so, came from.

Also, we hear a lot of, watch mom, watch dad, watch....watch. You're not watching.

and
O: Come on mom!Me: Okay, I'm coming.O: You're not coming mom.Me: I am coming.O: Mom! Mom! You are coming mom?
