--the best things in life aren't things

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

Told Soraiya that we were going to wash her hair today and here is today’s excuse:

“But my hair is already beautiful.”

Yes, of course it is, but today is wash day.

“But, after it’s washed, then it’s TOO beautiful.” 🤷🏻‍♀️

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

Soraiya doesn’t want a phone until she’s a grown up because then there won’t be any limits and she can do whatever she wants, when she wants. We’ll see how long this thought lasts

“Broooo, you’re doing the most!” - Soraiya to Kai

“I saw a place that daddy that would like. It has coffee, donuts, and fried chicken.” - Soraiya in Madison

Soraiya laying out the order of things for @CortyLamar:

First, next, second, last 🤣

“KAI! I’M TRYING TO READ A BOOK ABOUT BIRDS! STOP SCREAMING AT ME! IF YOU WANT A TOY, *grabs something* HERE!” - Soraiya, as heard through my office door

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

Soraiya wanted to hear a song about animals. Only one song came to mind…

“Alexa, play Who Let the Dogs Out” 😂

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

“What’s the opposite of young again?” - Soraiya

“Old” - me

“Ok, so the oldest goes first.” - S

We finalllly filed our taxes and for the first time in many years, we didn’t have to pay!!! What a relief 😮‍💨 I’d like to thank our newest dependent, Kai 👶🏽

I’m already plotting when I can take a nap today 😫😴 #daylightsavings

“I didn’t want you to jump off the couch.” - me

“I didn’t, I leapt.” - Soraiya

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

In the last 24 hours, Soraiya has hit me with some hard-hitting questions 🤔:

- Where does a baby come out?
- If grown ups all start as babies, how was there a grown up to take care of them?
- How does Santa get in the house in real life?

“I’m tired of sitting.” - Soraiya, 1 minute after having her fingernails and toenails painted 🙄💅🏽

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

You know, I have 3 siblings and only 1 of them has ever offered to babysit 🤔 I don’t play favorites but…

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

“I love you” - Soraiya
“I love you more” - me
“I love you even more. I love you a hundred times more!” - S

I know they say “food before 1 is just for fun” but this boy is EATING. He’s not just tasting a piece of fruit, he’ll eat the WHOLE banana/pear/nectarine/etc, and that’s just part of his meal, like duuuude 😵‍💫

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

Soraiya is probably the youngest in her 4K class but is the tallest 😅

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

Taking care of Soraiya’s hair is a part time job that I don’t get paid enough for 🫠

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

I guess nobody is getting egged these days…not with these prices

[mamaof2 @jfreeman114]

“The animal crackers were super good! I could even taste the flavor - animal flavor!” - Soraiya
