Pillow Talk 2

Will gets home late on Mondays and Tuesdays so I put Keegan to bed on those nights.
He will NOT go to sleep until his dad has talked Star Wars with him. Even if Will didn't show up until 2 am Keegan would be there all Go Dog Go-eyed (See Dr. Seuss book) waiting for his dad to Jawa talk. Weird just weird. I am convinced that Will has been waiting his whole adult life to have a son to talk Star Wars.
Then again, I have waited my whole adult life for a daughter to talk Doll House so I guess we are even.
Tonight though this is the conversation:
Will: "Keegan did you like having Maren at daycare today?"
Baby sister's first day at daycare. I only cried seven times.
"Mom what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing I am just a little sad. Mommy has to go back to work today. But that's what Mommy's do. They work."
What a total lie. There are like 7 Mommies around here who sit on their arses while "Boyfriend-Daddy" or "Ex-Daddy" pays the bills, but I don't tell that to my precious son.
"Momma is Maren coming to daycare today?"
"Yes. Won't that be great? Won't you love that?"
"I'll show the kids how to pet her."
Awesome. Better than I'll show the kids how to step on her. I'll take it.
Anyway, back to tonight..okay...
Will: "Keegan did you like having Maren at daycare today?"
"Yeah, we had chicken nuggets."
I am assuming my daycare provider did NOT give my two month old chicken nuggets and stuck to the prescribed formula.
"And Mommy broke the candle."
DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!
What happened to the Star Wars talk???????????? DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, I broke the glass centerpiece tonight..lifting it out of the way so he could watch Dora..another Mother of the Year moment..shut up..
I had to feed the baby during dinner..
Glass shattered everywhere..perfect..screaming hungry baby..perfect...glass on the floor. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect.
"Mom, I think you did that."
Yes. Yes. I did. Thank you, Keegan.
So I cleaned that whole debacle up and I thought it was forgotten. Never to be mentioned again. Nope. Ol' Loose Lips was just waiting...
Well that's just fine..two can play that game...some day he'll have a girlfriend..and I'll have noooo problem just casually mentioning how much he liked petting his sister..
