A conversation with my teen-ager...oops, I mean my pre-schooler
Me: Hey, La Nina, guess what? I'm off work today and you don't have to school.
La Nina: What are we doing?
Me: Well, I'm getting ready for Thanksgiving. You and your sister get to just hang out!
La Nina: Are we going to the park?
Me: I doubt it. I have a bunch of cooking to do. May be you can help.
La Nina: Can we frost a cake?
Me: No cake for this holiday. It's pies and Grandma is bringing them.
La Nina with brows furrowed: So, we aren't doing anything?
Me: We're hanging out together.
La Nina: Are my friends going to school?
Me: Some of them are.
La Nina: Mom, I want to go to school. It's boring at home.
Oy vey! Happy Thanksgiving everyone from the boring-est Mom ever! I thought this didn't start until the teens.
