When I Get Older...


Meredith's infamous excuse lately has been "when I get older". It can be in reference to anything she doesn't want to do, or something she really wants to do but is told no. We just finished up 6 week of swim lessons, so many of the things that she didn't want to do in the pool, such as going under, she would do "when she gets older". (She did eventually go under the water a few times.)

This excuse has gotten a little more interesting lately. At the store the other day she told me "When I get older and become a boy, then I can go back there." (the employees only section of the store). She also told her doll "When you get older and become real, then you can go to swim lessons with me." However, while we were getting our hair cut this week my hair stylist asked Meredith if she had pretend friends. She replied, "No. All of my friends are real."

Meredith's, "when I get older and become a boy" comment remind me of the Dar Williams song . . . Too cute! Angie C.
