I am going to wimp out and use Isabelle for this post because I have too much to do to get ready for Halloween to be creative in my posting today.
Isabelle loves to tell people she loves them all the time and that they are beautiful or handsome depending on whether they are a boy or girl. She probably will tell us 5 times in one day. Yesterday she told me, “Oh Grandma, I love you. You are so beautiful. Except your bangs. You should do something about your bangs.” Honesty, you gotta love it.
When I dropped her off at her mommy’s yesterday, she was telling Ashley that her daddy was going to meet them at my house and then he was going to take her trick-or-treating in my neighborhood. (Neither Ashley or Isabelle’s daddy live in very nice neighborhoods, Ashley lives in an apartment, so that’s out.) I told her, “Isabelle, your mommy is going to go trick-or-treating with you and your daddy.”
Isabelle was concerned and she asked Ashley, “Remember that time that you yelled at my daddy?” Ashley nodded, “Please don’t do that again. That really frightens me. It doesn’t frighten me so that I am shaking, but it still really frightens me.”
I asked her to tell Ashley what I was going to be for Halloween and she told her, “Grandma is going to be a damnation puppy, like in the damnation puppy movie.”
She is going to be a pirate. A GIRL pirate, she’ll have you know. I am going to be sure to take pictures of her and of my damnation puppy co-workers. I might share them with you, if you are nice to me.
Happy Halloween. Be safe.



LMAO ROFLOL at the “damnation puppy”
And I think it is SO cool that Isabella is able to voice those kind of things to Ashley (about the yelling). Very good!
Damnation? That sounds about right…
How much fun is that going to be! Isabella is quite the bright young thing isn’t she!
Have fun today.
How is puppy doing, by the way?
Damnation puppy! TOO FRAKKING CUTE!
It’s perfect for Helloween! 8-x
A hellfire and damnation puppy?
Dutchy–I totally agree with you. And she doesn’t forget a single thing, either.
Fab–pfft…
TrishK–Thank you. We are having a fun time. The puppy included!
MM–roflmao! She is a riot sometimes.
Finn–Something like that.
What is it with girls and pirates this year? Juliette, who’s the same age as Isobelle, also wanted to be a GIRL pirate. What can you do but comply?
Love the GIRL Pirate… girls can be anything Isabelle!
LOL at the damnation puppy…to funny
