Darby loves to sing. The girl knows almost every lyric to every song on the radio. Often times, she will be in the back and holler up to me when a good song comes on, "Mommy! I LOVE this song! This is my FAVORITE song! SING IT!" Sometimes I know the words. Sometimes I don't. Guess how it ends if I don't...
Anyhow, she loves to sing. You get the picture.
I was at bible study one morning. This particular morning, when bible study ended, our babysitter walked Darby in to the room. Darby scanned the room and quickly honed in on the microphone and stand that was set up on the little stage in the corner. It was set up to "Darby height." Perfect! She ran up to the mic and started singing. She quickly gained a captive audience of about 30 women. As the room grew quiet, Darby blasted out, "MOMMY! CAN WE GO TO STARBUCKS AND GET A CAPPUCINO?!" Immediate laughter burst through the room. Thirty sets of eyes spun my way. How does a mother of an almost three-year-old answer THAT one?
"Umm...yes, but we'll have to get DECAF this time."
