Diapers & Coffee

Every night:

V: “I want ‘Raindrops on Roses and Whiskers on Kittens’, and then ‘Goat Herd’, and then ‘Sound of Music’ where the naaanny sings, and then Moana 2 music.”

S: “OK. Hey Siri, play V’s playlist.”

In a rickshaw with traffic zipping and horns blaring all around us

V: “Why is India so loud?”

S: “V, did you just squish your brother again?”

V: “No, I just used him as a step stool”

V, after running into the back of my foot: “Ow! You hurt my bike wheel!”

V: “I was getting sweaty.”

S: “You were getting sweaty?”

M: “From what?”

V: “From the moon.”

“I call him little tiny cute monster ’cause he steals remotes.”

V: “This bike has safety measures!”

M: “What safety measures are on your bike?”

V: pointing to the brake line “The safety measures are inside this cord.”

(Discussing chocolate coins from the scavenger hunt at her brother’s birthday party.)

“Our treasure was coins. I ate all my coins. I was greedy for my coin treasures.”

(After tripping and putting her hand in some very green bird poop)

V: “I landed in some bird broccoli.”

A screenshot of a notification that reads, “Heihei requires your attention / Heihei is stuck.”

I renamed the Roomba recently because V has been on a Moana kick and it seemed appropriate. It has made the notifications entertaining.
