child of boundless seas, what you are, what you're meant to be

C: Hey Mom?  What's that place over there with the cars up high?

Me: Oh, that's a place you take your car to get it fixed.

C: Why are the cars up so high?

Me: So the fix-it dudes can get underneath to fix the cars.

C: Well, what if the cars poo on your head when you're under there?

Me: Cars don't poo.

C: Oh.

I just never really know what is going to come out of her mouth.  I just love her.  She's growing up too fast.  She asked me to put velcro curlers in her hair today "to make it look cute."  While we were waiting for the curlers to set, I glanced over at her and she just looked so big.  I cannot believe she's 4 years old.  I don't know where the time has gone.  She's been so nervous lately, because she knows that she has to get shots at her 5 year appt.  She's already worried about it.  I'm worried about it as well - but for entirely different reasons.  I don't want her to get any bigger.  I just want her to stay little.  I wish I could go back in time and just have one more day with C, when she was 6 months old.  Just one more day to hold her.  She'll always be my best little buddy.
