Yet Another Conversation with Abby

Three years old is definitely an interesting age. Abby can be both simultaneously adorable and mischievous all at the same time!

Background: Yesterday while getting ready for bed Abby went to the bathroom. She stood up and looked directly at Lisa and said, "I wiped!" Lisa looked into the toilet and there was no toilet paper there. She had deliberately lied! As a result, her computer privileges were taken away for today. The following two conversations were a result of that incident:

(directly following the incident)
Mike: Abby, pick out the book you want me to read you before bed.
Abby: The lie book. I need it!

(this morning after Abby used the bathroom)'
Lisa: Abby, did you wipe?
Abby: Yes.
Lisa: Are you telling me the truth?
Abby: Today?

is the lie book something real, or did Abby make that up? Either way, it's awesome.

Mike said...

No, the lie book is real, about a boy that eats a jar of cookies, lies about it, and then gets followed around by a fat green troll that continues to grow larger (surprise). The worst part is that the long nose on the troll is runny and in each picture he has four drips of liquid coming from the end. That just grosses me out. Of course, at the end the boy tells the truth and the troll shrinks to nothingless (but is still lurking in case the boy lies again).

OK, I meant "nothingNess".

Nick said...

No, I think you meant "Nothingless."

Those conversations are hilarious.
