Bedtime chatter
Some pretty funny things have been coming out of Trey's mouth lately. The following could be overheard at last night's bedtime:
Daddy: Good night, Trey. I love you.
Trey: I love chicken nuggets.
(This has happened many times before, by the way.)
Then Brandon left the room and turned the lights out. Trey and I rocked for a few minutes as we do every night, and I sang our favorite bedtime song, "Bye-oh-bye", a family lullabye carried on from my Meemaw Margaret. As I'm singing, Trey starts talking to himself.
"Time go night-night. Trey, Mama rock rock. Sing song bye-bye-baby. Get in crib. Yes."
A pep talk? A checklist? Too funny.
So I left and went to do some chores in the kitchen. Trey continued to babble, but I couldn't make anything out until he started yelling at the top of his lungs...
"CHI-CKEN NUG-GETS!!"
I promise we're not starving him - he actually ate a pretty big dinner. Anyway, he yelled this for a few minutes and then broke into a rousing, fast-paced version of "Jesus Loves Me" interspersed with "on farm had cow". A few seconds of silence, then another shout:
"Yay Mama! Mama go pee-pee potty!!"
Oh my goodness. I guess he was recounting the day's events, as we get very excited around here whenever anyone uses the potty. He cracks us up.
