22. Tillie Tuesday May 11, 2021

It’s just another Tillie Tuesday,

I wish it were a snooze day,

But it’s my news day,

And just another Tillie Tuesday.

Tillie, dining out:

We were eating our appetizers (rather large portions) and the server came back to see if we were ready to order our meal. Tillie points at the plates:

“Wait, wait, wait! That’s just a snack?!”

Tillie, rushing to get ready for school:

I was helping to get her socks on and Tillie hides one foot behind the other:

“I lost my other foot, Daddy. Sorry.”

Tillie, on body aches:

Tillie: I have a pony thing.

Me: A pony thing?

Tillie: Yes. In my leg.

Me: You have a pony thing in your leg?

Tillie: Yes.

Me: You mean a Charley horse?

Tillie: Yes, a Charley horse.

Me: Where is it?

Tillie: Ńevermind. It ran away.

Tillie, discussing friendship:

Me: How are you a good friend to your friend at school?

Tillie: Well, I sharpen my own color pencils when she could do it for me.

Tillie, assessing the situation:

“What? You’re stubborn. I don’t mean stubborn stubborn I just mean basic stubborn.”

And, finally,

Tillie, sensing Mommy is frustrated:

“You need some wine?”
