Out of the mouths of babes!

My Ashley is a very precocious child! The way her mind works I can't help but think she has been on this earth before. She definitely is an old soul. No 5 yr old should be able to reason the way she does. But I digress. My sweet girl was sick most of this week with a stomach flu. She had the usual problems one suffers with that type of bug, nausea/vomiting and dehydration. About 48 hrs after it started she was lying in her bed an wanted something to drink. Her mom brought her a small amount of ginger ale as prescribed by Ashley's pediatrician. Her mother explained to her that she needed to drink small sips and that if she vomited again she would need to have a Phenergan suppository. Ashley stated she wasn't sipping anything, she wanted a large glass of water. Her mother told her she needed to sip the ginger ale and left it in Ash's room. A few minutes later Ash called for her Dad. When her Dad went to her room Ash stated she wanted a big glass of water. Her Dad told her she had the ginger ale and she needed to sip it or she would need to get the suppository "up her butt." Here is where it gets real funny. My beautiful perfect princess of a granddaughter said to her father " I don't think so mister, the only thing going up anybody's butt is my foot up yours now get out!" Where does this come from?

Well thankfully she is feeling better and she called me today to thank me for the Valentine I had sent her. We talked for a few minutes and I was getting ready to leave. Now Ash likes to talk on the phone and she doesn't like to hang up. One of the ways we get her to hang up the phone is we tell her we are driving and can't talk on the phone when we drive. So today my precocious baby says "Who's driving?" And I immediately answer that Papa will be driving us to the store. And she says well since Papa is driving then I can talk with you as long as I want." Oh oh, now how am I going to get her to hang up? What will it be like when she goes to Kindergarten?
