We went to South Padre Island’s Water park today. It was ho-hum. Afterwards, we went to Darado’s.
At Darado’s the girls were getting on great and Cindy asked the girls if they had nick names for each other. After all, they have named and developed personalities for all their 100’s of stuffed animals. Though, its hard to see how G stood D enough to do this as D spends so much time bossing her around with arbitrary rules and commandments. Anyway, D said she just calls G, G. G said that she just calls D, “EVIL“. We all laughed, except D.
D said that G wasn’t her friend. Cindy asked D who her best friend was and D listed her 3 closest friends including R who lives on our block. Cindy pointed out that she never wants to go play with R when she is playing with G. “You would rather play with your little sister than one of your best friends?!?”
D interrupted this discussion announcing, “Phone call from Bestest Sealy — Mommm, I have to take this!” Bestest sealy is D’s stuffed life size baby harp seal. Being life size stops Sealy from going places with us but she will sometimes call in (via D’s pretend mobile phone) to find out if we can bring home chocolate cake.
D said she really needed to take the pretend call from the pretend harp seal. We pointed out to D that the pretend seal could leave a pretend voice mail. D insisted that it was awfully important and it couldn’t wait.
Turns out the seal was calling to ask me if the restaurant served chocolate cake. I told D that the place sold chocolate banana cake. Listening in on the rest of the conversation … the seal was horrified that anyone would ruin a chocolate cake with bananas.
