Evil Charlotte

Katie has an imagination on steroids. She has an entire posse of "imagination friends" and enemies. Her BIFF (best imaginary friend forever) is Emma. However, Butterfly, Strawberry, Rainbow, Blueberry and Apple Dumplin are frequent visitors. Her arch enemy is Charlotte. According to Katie, she is evil. The other day she was telling me just how evil she is.

Katie: Charlotte is NOT a child of God.
Me: Oh yeah....
Katie: Yes. She is a child of....who's that bad guy that doesn't like Jesus?
Me: Satan?
Katie Yes. Charlotte is a child of Satan.

I have no idea where she comes up with this stuff, but it makes life interesting!

Evil Eyes

So, yesterday my son wakes up with an exploding eye. You know what I'm talking about: red, pustuous, swollen beyond recognition. Gross. I take him to the doctor who promptly prescribes eye drops. This morning his eye is very close to normal. It's a miracle I tell you!


The eye drops still need to be administered daily for the next week, which causes great stress for my guy. This morning I was putting in the drops and trying to explain why I was causing my own flesh and blood pain. Katie was sitting nearby and the conversation went something like this:

Me (to J): Your eye drops will help take the red out of your eyes.
Katie (to me): Whaaaat??? Jacob has RED eyes???? *thinking* Um, is he going to turn evil?
Me: Bwahahahahaha

No. Just me. Welcome to Summer Vacation!

Katie Says

Katie: Woah! That was close!
Mom: What was close?
Katie: The gum almost got stuck in my nose!
