Before bed..

M: Mommy, will you braid my hair?
Me: Now?
M: Yes
Me: Why?
M: So I can wake up and have curly hair
Me: Ooooh… sure, grab me some hair pieces to tie the ends
M: Ok, but I want four of them
Me: Sure

This morning…

M: (waltzing in to my bedroom) Tada…
Me: Whooooo, look at you fancy girl
M: Do you like it?
Me: I LOVE it!!
M: (GIGANTIC smile)

In the car…

Me: (Almost to school) Why are you not sitting back?
M: I don’t want to ruin my hair
Me: (Rolled eyes) Oh, M…

Driving home… hair still curly by the way (I was quite surprised!)…

Me: Did your friends like your hair?
M: Yes, they liked it (kind of monotonous)
Me: Nice!
M: (Enthusiastically) I love my hair, mommy. I kept wanting to look at myself in the mirror and go ooooh, aaaaah, so beautiful!!!
Me: (Burst out laughing) Oh, my Memers Ann (just one of my other names for her), you make me laugh
M: (Giggles) I love it when you laugh, mommy, and when you call me Memers Ann
Me: (Still laughing)You make me laugh, Emma
M: I know (giggles), can we braid my hair again tonight?
Me: Sure, why not
