Debbie Downer

So, recently Malia has started doing little "Debbie Downer" statements that really make me laugh. Like, for instance I will say, "we're not going to play with your friends right now, they're still eating breakfast/taking a nap/at preschool/taking a bath"---really whatever excuse I can come up with not to require me to make a playdate at that moment, and Malia will say..."I guess I won't play with my friends..." with a very wa-wa-wa (going down in key) sound to it.

So, the other morning she was sitting down to eat her aforementioned pancake breakfast and she goes "I guess I won't eat my pancakes..." (think wa wa wa) I said, "why honey?" and lil' Debbie came back with "because there's a hair on it." The girl cracks me up. I have got to do better at writing these things down.
