Common Phrases Overheard on Our Vacation (so far)
Here is a highlight of our vacation in Delaware so far- keep in mind that we're staying in a beach house about the size of our last apartment with our friends and their four kids...
"What time is it?" (because there are no clocks anywhere in not just our house, but anywhere in the town.
"Where did I put my (fill in the blank)?" (because it's inevitable that no matter where you put something originally, it's not there five minutes later)
"HOW many times have we told you to close the door when you're changing?!" (because there are members of my family who have no concept of what modesty is)
"HOW many times have we told you guys to spray after you go to the bathroom?!" (because there are many children who don't get that concept, either)
"What time is high tide?" (everyone seems to be fascinated by this "phenomenon"-- not sure why, but I think the kids think this means the water turns purple or something once high tide hits... Maybe I should tell them this and see how many buy it...
"What day is it?" (somehow I managed to skip over Tuesday without realizing it)
"My God, how much sand can you dump out of your swim suit onto the floor?!" (no need for explanation)
"Aidan! Personal space, Dude!" (once again, no explanation needed)
I will post at a later time more details (and pictures) from our vacation, as well as why I will never visit DC again (because every time I've gone there, something awful has happened). But now I'm off to the boardwalk or to walk the beach at night with my kids...
