I really need to start writing down the things Maicee says. Sometimes she can be quite entertaining. Tonight she was eating a bag of cherries and watching Veggietales. Apparently she wasn't paying very close attention because I heard her exclaim "where'd my cherries go?!!?" I look down at her feet and find about 20 stems, no pits. She had eaten all of the cherries (even the pits) and didn't even realize it. Silly girl.
So, then she hears her friends playing outside. One little girl, Kaila, asked if she could come down and play. I told her she needed to wipe the cherry juice off her face first. She goes running into the kitchen, grabs one of her colored pictures from nursery, wipes her face, then comes running back to me for inspection. I helped her get a paper towel and really wipe her face. I opened the front door for her and told her to go straight to the "big" backyard, (we have 2 backyards here: the big one I can see from my back balcony, the "small" one is the next building over and has the pool in it, making it the "small" one), because our neighbor likes to get stoned and talk about how no one believes in Jesus anymore. He came over about an hour ago and was super high, so I didn't want Maicee to be anywhere near him. I was watching for her to get to the backyard, and all her friends left. 15 seconds later, Maicee comes running into the backyard, and I hear hear shout, "what?!!? Oh no, where'd my friends go?" Luckily Rhianna heard her and came back to hang out until everyone else came back. She cracks me up.
