Four years later and the difference remains the same.
The Difference Between The Two
Category Archives: Conversations with Kira
New Kid
A new student transferred to Kira’s class from her Tita MG’s school and said she knew a Ms. San Juan.
Kira: My aunt teaches at ____, do you know her?
Student: Yeah I knew a Ms. San Juan but she wasn’t my teacher.
Kira: Was she really tan and really happy?
Student: Yeah…
Kira: That’s my aunt!!!
What are we?!?!
Kira: Mommy I’m bored. I’m bored. I’m bored. We’re bored. WE ARE BORED…
Kira: Kian, what are we?!?!
Kian: Children.
Knock, knock…
Kira: Knock, knock…
Kian: Who’s there?
Kira: Boo
Kian: Huh???
Kira: NO! Knock, knock…
Kian: Who’s there?
Kira: Boo
Kian: What?!?!
Kira: NO! You’re supposed to say “boo who?”
Kian: Who???
Kira: NEVERMIND.
Friends
If you want an honest answer, ask a kid. Chik-Fil-A’s “toy” in the kids meal was a pack of conversation starter cards, so on the ride home we went through a few.
Really Quick
We went to the movies and told the kids we’d be back really quick. Naturally, Kira had something to say about it, but this time with a text message from Lola’s phone.
Kira: Really????? You always say that but it actually takes a long time.
The “really?????” face.
Munchkins
After eating about 10 munchkins for breakfast…
Daddy: If you keep eating those munchkins you’re going to turn into one.
Kira: Then I can eat myself??? 😬
Mother’s Day 2018
Lola Neni: Kira, do you have a gift for your mom?
Kira: Yes
Lola Neni: How about for me?
Kira: It is Mother’s Day. You know, MOTHERS. Not Grandmother’s Day. Ask your daughter. You are Krissy’s mother.
The “F” Word
“Fuck.”

Notes from school…
In the car today, Kira handed me a letter and asked me to read it.
(Insert proud parent moment)
Then she handed me this letter.
I asked, “Are you OK? What happened?”
She said, “I smacked myself in the face.”
“And why did you do that???”
“I was watching Hayden pull stuff out of the mat and did a facepalm.”
