Non-Exchangeable
Ellis: Mom, I really want you to have a new baby.
Me: No, sweetie. We have plenty of babies and Mama’s very tired.
Ellis: Well, what if we got rid of Georgia?
Me: But we’d miss her terribly and I would cry every day.
Ellis: It’s Ok. We could visit her and bring her cat food. You know how she likes to eat cat food.
I love almost-6 year old logic, even if I am not certain about his argument.
Have a lovely weekend.

Love it! Watch yourself though. MMy eldest said he wanted a sister when he was 4, and I was adamant that 2 children was enough….then bam bam, he had a new brother and then a new sister….
Gorgeous photo. and who wouldn’t want to be fed cat food. Have a lovely weekend – Annie
Loved reading this, and love the way he has a solution to make this work for everyone:)
priceless! Our friends girls (5 and 3) came out with something similar when they fell in love with our baby boy the first time they met him. ”Can we take him home with us?” they asked. “no, I’d cry if you took him away’ I said. ‘oh, well we’ll leave our baby sister here for you instead”.
thank you for these advices!!!
