Out of the Mouth of babes...

Yesterday I made the trek up to kingwood (aka "the wood") to see my poor injured Jessica and bring her a care package. It had honestly been quite a while since I had journeyed to "the wood", much less seen mom and pop Weber (Jess' Parents). While Jess and I were digging into some oh so delicious Ben and Jerry's "Half Baked" (which is Heaven on Earth) I got up and went looking for the bathroom. While passing through the living room I saw Parker, Jess' niece, watching Finding Nemo and dancing around in her underwear and cute little Popsicle t-shirt. All of the sudden Jess' mom walked in and asked Parker if she wanted to take a shower. She enthusiastically shook her head yes and grabed her grandma's hand. As they walked past me Mrs. Weber told Parker to recite the Pledge of Allegiance for me. Little miss Parker puffed up her chest with all the pride she had in her and began "I pledge allegiance to the flag..." and then she paused, turned around with her butt toward me, pulled down her underwear and said "Hey, Look at THIS!" I could not stop laughing! It was the most adorable mooning I have ever witnessed. Of course Jess' mom was so embarrassed and through her laughter assured me that the little bean had never done anything like this before. To top it all off Parker tried her pledge again and she did an excellent job for a two and a half year old. The best part was when she got to indivisible under God. Despite her best efforts it came out "individibulll under gawd", how precious! Before she went to bed she even took time to stop by in her grandma's pink high heels and polo shirt to come give Jess a night night kiss.

Thinking about Parker's antics last night are still making me giggle this afternoon, even after I retold the story multiple times. Thank you Miss Parker Marie for giving me (and your aunt, who definitely needed a laugh) a big goofy smile!
