She’s SO Getting a Book Deal
Location: The Dinner Table
Participants: My family (me, husband, and the four year old)
Subject: Frankly, I’m not quite sure
For the record, no one wanted to cook or do dishes so pizza it is! It was delivery and definitely delissimo.
4yo: Mommy, can you take me to a mommy blog someday?
husband: *snort*
me: Uh…sure… you mean you want to go to BlogHer?
4yo: No mommy, I want to go to a mommy blog.
me: Yeah, okay… I’ll take you to a mommy blog right after dinner.
I figured I would sort out the logistics of that one after eating. Best to “reserve that thinking stuff for times when you’ve got a full tummy” is my credo.
4yo: Thanks Mommy.
Silence ruled while pizza is inhaled. Between slices the conversation picked up again.
husband to 4yo: So do you want to write a mommy blog?
4yo: Yes
me: Really?
One would think with the example that has been set for her that the last thing on this planet this child would want to do is blog.
4yo: YES
husband: You need a topic or focus otherwise no one will read you.
me: Is that my problem?
husband ignores me and continues to 4yo: So what will you write about?
4yo pauses. After some deep thought, a huge smile spreads across her face.
4yo: POOP! I’ll write about poop!
me: You are going to be a very successful blogger my dear.

@A Vapid Blonde, Seriously, the kid is stealing my mojo too. I must discourage this spelling thing before she leaves us in the dust.

@katie ~ motherbumper, Also I think I lied…. I just google dog poop and my blog is now where near the top, not even the front page…I wonder how ALL of those people end up at my blog from googling dog poop (not sure how to spell googling)
I would also be very concerned about the fact that she is four and wants to be a *MOMMY* blogger…I mean considering how one gets to be a mommy and all.

@Tena, I know! It’s the topic du jour on many blogs these days so I don’t think she could have timed it any better.

Man, the force is strong with that one. She gets it. Already.

@Assertagirl, I know, it’s frightening how she already knows the hooks. She’d better share the revenue.

@Maria, She’s going to fit in great, don’tcha think?

She will fit in perfectly. Tell her if she runs out of poop material to work her way into vagina talk. Like her Auntie Shauna.

@Shauna, her current obsession with said body part will ensure she won’t run out of material for a looooong looooong time. Poop and Vaginas is where it’s at.

As I always say, you can’t go wrong with poop. Throw a little diarrhea in there and you got a winning blog. (By the way, I totally had to look up how to spell ‘diarrhea.’)
