Milk and Tea
By Moriah on February 15th, 2010

Our Valentine’s weekend started out with a BANG: Adelaide spilled an entire carton of milk all over our couch and carpet. Yeah. Lakes of milk. (And I hadn’t had my coffee yet.)
Madeline had gotten it out to put a little in her oatmeal and I’m not sure how it happened, but probably Adelaide just bumped it. Anyway, I was very glad it was almond milk and not cow’s. Our living room now smells a little vanilla-y.
(And yes, I do allow them to eat at the coffee table. Bringing a whole carton of milk in there? Not so much.)
I must admit it wasn’t my proudest moment discovering my living room doused in milk. Drew and Madeline were crying but Adelaide (this is SO Adelaide) huffed and goes, “why you not bein’ my best friend?!” I bust out laughing. Leave it to her to provide the comic relief.
I was also very glad Andy was willing to finish cleaning it up. We were trying to get ready to make it to a tea party.

Which was very fun and very girl-y.

Adelaide’s comment made me giggle. I can SO see one of my girls’ saying that.
Sorry about the spilled milk. I would have been a-n-g-r-y. With a Capital A.
This is why you’re slowly becoming my mom hero even though I’ve never met you. I don’t think I could have found it within myself to laugh, although I do think that’s a better way to go than my first instinct. Adelaide… wow, that’s priceless.
So who wasn’t “being her best friend”?…you or Drew and Madeline??
ME. Because I was yelling at them. “Best friends” here means “you’re being nice to me.” Ha.
Adelaide had me ROLLING!!!!!
