Allison: I took a kiwi to school today for my snack.
Mom: That is a healthy snack. Was is hard to eat?
Allison: No, I got a plastic knife from the cafeteria to cut it when I ate it. I didn’t want it to get smashed in my backpack so I carried it around in my hand all morning.
Mom: (silently grateful she had the foresight to not take a real knife no school) Maybe next time cut it up first then you can leave it in a container in your locker or backpack. (Already know she is going to tell me she doesn’t care about “doing it the easy way”)
Allison: I don’t care if I have to cut it at school. People kept asking me what it was. Who doesn’t know what a kiwi is?! I put it on my desk in science and I had a bunch of people convinced it was a baby coconut. Then Mr. Hines comes over and tells everyone, “That is a kiwi, baby coconuts are not a thing. It has a sticker on it that says KIWI.” Then he walked off.
Mom: So now everyone knows what a kiwi is.
Allison: No. When he walked away, I told them kiwi is Spanish for baby coconut. Pretty sure at least three people believed me
Mom: 🤦🏻♀️
Another day…
Allison: Mom, do you know what a walk up song is? Like in baseball when the batter walks up he picks the song?
Mom: Yes, I know what a walk up song is.
Allison: Well, they don’t have those in gymnastics so I decided I wanted one for when I walk into my classes at school. The past couple days I have played one for most of my classes when I walk in.
Mom: Oh…ok. So what song do play?
Allison: The Imperial March. Darth Vadar’s theme song.
Then proceeds to laugh her head off.🤦♀️
This next picture is from a while ago, I came across it in my pictures the other day. Allison is known to leave various types of notes on her door depending on her mood. I will leave it up to the reader to guess her mood for this one.
