"Mommy? The weather is good this week don't you think?" Youngest asks.
"Uh huh," I reply.
"Let's go to Hopeless Beach!" she shouts.
"Hopeless beach? What the heck is that!" Angus shouts out.
"HOPELESS Beach! You know the one with the rides and the big lollipops..." Youngest says.
"Oh you mean Rehobeth Beach!" Oldest cuts in. "It's Rehobeth, say Rehobeth."
"Re - hopeless beach," Youngest says, trying very seriously.
"Ruuuuh Hohhhhh Bethhhhhh, Ruuuuuh Hohhhh Bethhhhh." Oldest is sounding it out for her.
"Ruuuuh Hole Besssssssssss," Youngest says.
"No - Rehobeth!"
"Rehopeless"
"Rehobeth!"
"Reholeless!"
"Gah!! Forget it! It's hopeless!" Oldest shouts.
Youngest is absolutely indignant. "But that's what I've been saying this whole time!!!"

Thanks for making me smile while here at the hell hole I call work.

Speaking as a youngest child, "youngest" is always right.

Thanks for the kind words and popping by.
Ha! Rehobeth is hopeless! I need to tell that to friends who have been going there for years... (I'm an OC kid myself-- Jersey, that is)
:)
He he. Great! This should be on the commercial for Rehobeth Beach. Or maybe not. Still, hilarious!
LOL. Your girls crack me up. They remind me of my 8-year-old cousin. :-)
OMG. That was too perfect. :D
Full circle!!
Another gem, Ello. Glad you're writing these down...
Hilarious!! Plato and Lulu have these conversations constantly, though none end as perfectly as this one! Thanks for the giggle =)!
You are *so* good at these!
FANTASTIC!
I always love your kid stories! You are fast approaching enough volume to make another book!

LOL!
But Rehobeth beach is very nice. I love it there...
LMAO! Brilliant!
Funny! My oldest daughter called my neighbor, whose last name was Loughry (lock-ry), Mrs. Broccoli for years. Hopeless beach. Too much!
Well, hello Ello! Thanks so much for dropping by my blog and leaving your kind words about my forthcoming book. It was a long, ugly road to get to this point!
I love your blog, and your kids - hilarious!
Cheers,
Christy
