Conversations with O: Oedipal edition


I'm leaving this morning for a five-day girls' trip, and even though I know I'm going to have a ridiculously good time, I've got a little case of pre-homesickness.  So I'm going to be self-indulgent and reflect on sweet things Owen has said to me lately.

O:     Mommy, I love you five hundred!
Me:   Well I love you five hundred and five!!
O:     Well... I love you fourteen seven six nineteen eleventeen five hundred!!!

-------------------------------------
  
Mommy, you are the girl in the world.  (Translation:  I'm the best girl in the world.)

-------------------------------------

O:     Here Mommy, I picked you some flowers.  
Me:  Aww, thanks O!  Here, I'll put them in my hair... What do you think?  How do they look?
O:     Thaaat's... that's good.  'Cause... we'll need some for our wedding soon anyways.


Have a great weekend everyone!

Such sweet words. So glad you are making a journal of the things he is saying because you will forget as time goes by.
I hope you have a great time on your girl trip!
Love you lots!
