Let the antics begin
Today at PJ’s conference her teacher told us that she really enjoys making up funny sentences in Chinese and then writing them on the white board. I think her exact words were “Ooohhhh she sooo funny, she like mixing up woads to make funny sentence.”
At that point in the conference, I decided to share with her what happened at our lunch table earlier that day.
As the kids were eating lunch, I was on the phone with Adam. I was about to say goodbye to him and then looked over and asked, “PJ how do you say I love you in Chinese?” She looked at me, shrugged and said, “Oh…say, ni hao da pi gu”.
So I repeated it just as she had told me to. And as the last sounds were parting my lips she doubled over with laughter until tears started rolling down her cheeks.
“What did you just have me say?”
“You said…Hi big bottom!”

My Dad: Did you watch American Idol last night?
Me: Did you watch American Idol last night?
My Dad: I love that David Archuletta.
Me: Did you know he’s only seventeen?
My Dad: He’s got such a good voice for being so young AND he’s Mormon.
Me: (thinking…Mormon… what the hell does that have to do with it, you’d think he was talking about a Catholic.)
My Dad: Simon really gets a bad wrap. He is the only one who gives constructive criticism.
Me: That Kristy Lee Cook is only hanging around because she’s so cute.
My Dad: She is the only one that listened to Simon’s advise last week. She changed her whole look with that long dress and those bare feet.
…And tune in next week when my dad and I tackle Transubstantiation.
