Lil' Tidbits and a lil' gratitude

Today I was in desperate need of getting some cleaning done around the house, so after getting home from a playdate I set Lily up in her playroom with some toys and books. This worked for a few. But then I heard "Momma! C'meeere! I neeeeed you!" So, up I went. When I got into her playroom she handed me her wand and said "You be da fairy and turn me into somefing." So, of course, I did my best fairy impression..."Bippity, Boppity, Boo! You're a DOG!" And Lily was on all fours, barking. "Bippity, Boppity, Boo! You're a BABY!" She responds saying "Mama" and doing her best "WHAAHH" Again? OK. "Bippity, Boppity, Boo! You're a...MOMMA!? She sat (thinking) for a moment, and then (giggling, with her hands on her hips) she says sassily "I got stuff to do!" Then I turned her into a frog. hehe

A bit earlier we were playing in her playroom and she looked perplexed. I asked her what was wrong and she said "I don't know what to do next." I asked her if she'd like to do some puzzles. "Oh yes. Wet's do da puzzle where we wive." So, she grabbed her puzzle of the USA. I grabbed the Michigan piece and said "Lily, this is Michigan...you know this is where we live in the US." Then she grabbed the Texas piece and said "Dis is Texas!" (I was surprised, and impressed...we hadn't done this puzzle in quite some time) "Wow, Lily! That's right" I said. "How did you know that?" To which she replied, quite confidently "Cuz I know things!"

Hope you all have a week filled with lil tidbits that make you smile.

P.S. To you beautiful ladies who nominated my lil blog for an award I say THANK YOU! I will be breaking all rules and NOT posting the awards on my blog. However, I am extremely grateful for your kind words and acknowledgement. The people I have met here in "blogland" are one-of-a-kind. I honestly can't picture my life without you guys in it. Seriously, I should cut back on my time spent here and get some other things done, but can't seem to do it. I just love you all too much. So, thanks.
