Driving Em to church for training for Angel Camp….
Em: How long is it?
Me: About an
hour. You have your phone in case it
finishes early or you need something, right?
Em: No.
Me: Do you have your
purse? You know, the one that you always
wear or you feel naked?
Em: No.
Me: Huh. I’ll be here after picking up Liv from
gymnastics.
Em: Okay.
At 7:30pm this is what is going to happen….
<I’m actually writing this at this very moment (June 11,
2013) in the McDonald’s parking lot anticipating the following.>
Me: Hey, Liv?
Liv: Yah?
Me: I want you to go
into the church and find Emily.
Liv: Okay.
Me: LIv, when you see
her I want you to jump up and down, wave your arms above your head and say “Hi Emily. Mom was worried you wouldn’t know where she
is so she sent me in.”
Liv: Okay, I can do
that. <laugh>
Me: One more
thing. When you are walking out with
Emily I want you to point to every boy you see and ask Em loudly if she wants
him as her boyfriend.
Liv: Really?
Me: Yes, really.
<little smile>
Liv: You got
it!!!! <Dying with laughter>
Well, Emily, school might be finished for the year, but
after tonight I’m pretty sure you’ll remember your phone whenever you leave the
house. Enjoy your summer!!!! Also, do you think you’ll have a summer
romance? Were there any takers?
Meanest mom ever!!!!!!!
P.S. I’m really not
going to do the boyfriend part, but I’m definitely sending in Liv. Liv, people, Liv. You know, the one like me? That should be enough motivation to remember
her phone.
