Conversation with my 4y old
I have many conversations with my daughter at 4am. Why ? Because that’s when she wakes up and believes it is the perfect time to engage in random discussions of her choice.
Daughter: Daddy time to wake up
ME: groan
Daughter: I am hungry
ME: Its too early for you to be hungry, goto sleep
Daughter: Put food in my belly
ME: is this an Austin powers rerun? Please goto sleep
Daughter: I am hungry
ME: I heard you the first 30 times, Its too early just goto sleep
Daughter: I cant find my sock
ME: Forget the sock goto sleep
Daughter: I want to play with my brother
ME: WHAT? No No Please dont wake him up too
Daughter: The sun is up
ME: No the sun is not up that is the light from the street, now goto sleep
Daughter: get up get up
ME: GET OFF MY HEAD, I AM NOT A DRUM
Daughter: I have to poop.
ME: ( sigh) Lets goto the bathroom.
And so begins my day. Poop, brush teeth, making toast for her and watching the sun rise.
Moral of the story. You never know where a conversation is going to go. Always be prepared. Sometimes it is fun trying to figure it out. Sometimes it is not. 4am. Not.
But I love her regardless

I love you
