‘Neener, Neener’

Last night, Rlo and I had dinner with Mrs. AK and her kids. After dinner Little AK asked me to read her a story and tuck her in. This has been a longstanding tradition between the two of us, until recently, when she’s decided Rlo can join us.

No matter which book I choose, Little AK wants the male character to be called Rlo-pants. He blushes and I oblige. The three of us crawl into her tiny PINK! bed to hear the story. As I turned over the last page, Little AK immediately dismissed Rlo from her bedroom, so that I could tuck her in properly.

As I was picking up her stuffed animals and placing them on her bed, she looked up at me and said, “Goodnight, Sarah, I love you more than Rlo.”

“Well, sweetie, I love you more than chocolate, and you know how I love chocolate.”

“But, Sarah, I love you more than Google.”

Realizing I couldn’t follow that up, I gave her a quick kiss, turned off the light and ran downstairs to gloat.

    This is my new official favorite phrase. I hope to be able to use it more than once a day.

    As I found this via a Michigan Football blog, I’m going to assume you know who Jake Long is (For anyone who does not: he was the first draft pick taken in the NFL draft this weekend). Anyway, a friend of mine has a two year old daughter and a few weeks ago he woke to her peeking over the edge of his bed. He said “Hi Pumpkin” to which she replied “Daddy, Jake Long is a beast!” Still no clue where she got that, but it’s priceless.

    You need to have your own baby! You’re good with kids it seems. My daughter was the best thing that ever happened to me.

    Thank you for the details. I did not really understand this completely and this helps.
