Stream of Consciousness Malia Style

A portion of the stream of chatter Malia produced while I was combing her hair this morning:

"I saw a red Dalek. Daleks are made of cans. They put wheels on them. The Wizard of Oz only has a walking can man and a lion. Lions don’t really talk. They make a roaring sound. The lions at the zoo don’t talk. It’s down to my bum. Sister Johnson needs to cut it! Did it snap? These rubber bands are cheap. One, two, three, four, five. There are five heart buttons on my dress. It’s almost empty. We need to get a big one…"

That is only a portion of the wisdom she spewed forth this morning. There was something about ears as well and a bunch of stuff I don’t remember.

Now a couple of tidbits to help you understand where her brain was:

~While we were at the library yesterday, Nathan picked up a “Where’s Doctor Who” book that is made in the style of “Where’s Waldo.”
~Sister Johnson lives across the street from us. She has a salon in her basement and she is the one who cuts our hair.
~ We broke yet another cheap rubber band before I could get it into her hair.
~ I use a small spray bottle to spritz Malia’s hair while I’m combing it.

The part about the cans totally made me laugh. I mean, she’s not wrong. The Tin Man really is a walking can man. And I imagine Daleks would be a lot less intimidating if they had Del Monte stamped on their butts. ;-)
