Me: What did you do at school today?K: I don't wanna talk about itM: Did you make these cookies?I held up a plate with 4 dinosaur sugar cookiesK: uh huh, the ones with red hots are just for you mamaM: Wow thank you! What else did you do?K: I already said I don't wanna talk about school... Can we go pick up Billy from schoolM: He's at home waiting for you. Ellie picked him up.for those of you who don't know or haven't read the "My kid's imaginary friend is satan" post "Billy" is her imaginary brother/ friend/ yoda/ devil... "Ellie" is his imaginary caregiver because while I am apparently a pretty good mom for K, I am shit mom to Billy and he needs looking afterK: Are you sure?M: He was there when I left. Why did I make this up??? So I wouldn't have to stand around on the street while she picks him up from one of the neighbor's gates....
M: So I heard you were painting dinosaurs today...K: Did you know that some dinosaurs had like 2,000 teeth? And they were mean... There were nice ones too. But the mean one, the tranosauraus tex, had lots of teeth!! How big were they???M: Who the Tyrannosaurus Rex?K: Yes the Trano thing...M: About as tall as that treeI pointed at a really big tree.K: I told all the kids that since they are all dead you could go to a museum and see all their bones.... but there isn't any meat or skin or anything on them... M: Wow.K: Mama, how big were dinosaur babies?M: Well they had to have been pretty big right? Why?K: Mrs. J says that some dinosaurs eat their own babiesM: Oh she did?K: Yes, I think only the mean ones did that. What is it called when someone eats their kid? M: Cannibalismat this point a woman was jogging past us and her head whipped around and i thought she was going to be sick as she continued on her way probably hoping that I wasn't permanently damaging my kids mind...K: Wow, cannibal dinosaurs... I'm so glad people don't eat their babiesM: So am i kiddo.
