We had a nice evening together as a family.  After Christian's scrumptious meal of homemade baked chicken egg rolls, we took a short walk together.  Even though Eden stopped at every other house since she was riding her scooter, Isla screeched 75% of the way because it was too close to bedtime, and we sweat like hogs, I think we still got some enjoyment out of it.  We returned home and I was prepared to read library books, but neither of the girls was interested.  Isla played with her new Elmo doctor kit while Eden played...well, pretend.  


I was interacting with Isla and Eden was doing her own thing when I looked up to find Eden wearing a baby bonnet.  She was stuffing toys into Isla's doctor kit case and huffing and puffing because they wouldn't all fit saying "Ugh, it's hard packing for Paris".  I giggled to myself and went back to playing with Isla.   A few minutes later, Eden came up to me...still wearing the bonnet tied under her chin now.  "Mama, did you know I'm not really a grown-up?"  I must have looked a little confused because she repeated herself "Mama, did you now I'm not reeeealllly a grown-up?"  I smiled and whispered back "Yes, I know you're not really a grown-up, silly."  "Yes, I'm actually not a grown-up at all.  I'm actually....a ROCK-STAR!"  I tried to contain my laughter, as her face was so serious.  I just smiled and whispered, "Oh, OK..." as she whispered again "so don't tell anyone my secret."  I nodded, still trying not to giggle out loud.  She walked away with a proud smile on her face, removed her bonnet and proceeded to flail her head around in a circle and toss her hair about.  She didn't stop until it was most definitely looking a mess and stopped, looked at me and said "Do you think my hair looks wonky?"  No longer able to contain my amusement, I burst into laughter "BAHAHAHA...yep, it's wonky, alright!" She smiled and returned to stuffing toys into the doctor kit.  


Weird kid.  LOL




Here's the evidence of weird-ness.  Ordinarily, I'd try to blame such weirdness on the Parsons' gene, but this speaks way too much to the Alex and Hannah gene, that I guess I can't blame Christian.  LOL
