Day 19
Conversations with Bubba in the car:
Bubba: Mom, today I saw my mom.
Me: I know.
Bubba: And a pig says Oink Oink and I want to ride on a fire truck!
*****
Bubba: Mom…who is this little lady?
Me: That is Shrek’s Girlfriend.
Bubba: Oh. (Throws her on the ground)
*****
Bubba: I’m going to get daddy when he get home. I going to get him and jump on him and get him. And then I get up. And shake my butt.
*****
Bubba: I going to sit on his lap and tell him give me boat and truck.
Snowbaby: I want truck.
Bubba: You can’t. You girl. You no penis.
*****
Bubba: Hey, where Rick James at?
Me: She’s still at the doctor.
Bubba: I want her come home.

LOL Bubba calls her Rick James???

Poor Rick James. I wish we could squeeze into these girls the things you can’t know at those ages, like the fact that most boys suck, and most men don’t, and that their really are people out here who care A LOT if she is living and healthy. I was such a wreck at that age, and it amazing that as the years go on, you really do see the bigger picture, it just takes time. We miss you Callie and love you tons, please get better soon.

Nothing better than a Bubba Break. I’m glad you’re able to see that, too. Hope Rick James is able to turn things around soon.

My thoughts are with you and your family. I hope Rick James is okay. Stay strong - you are a great mom.

How is she doing? Is she going to have to stay?
November 20th, 2007 at 12:00 pm
That is very funny.

Hug Bubba for me.
Hug Callie for me too.
I hope she gets better soon. She usually seems so happy in your blog, not the kind of person wh would get so mentally ill as to be suicidal, but I guess it can hit anybody.

I want her come home too.
November 20th, 2007 at 10:14 pm
I hope Rick James can come home soon too! Bubba is funny as always. Thank god you have the other kids, and Bubba stories to tell. I hope you set him straight about the truck and the penis thing. !! After all, isn’t he the one who wants, not to be strong like daddy, but strong like YOU?!!

[...] a virtual friend and a good cause Posted on December 5, 2007 by laterain Baggage has one of those blogs that I just sort of stumbled upon randomly, and yet she is now in my “must read” folder. There is something about her sense of humor, the way she is so open about her struggles, and especially the darling Bubba and Snowbaby dialogues! [...]
