The Interview

This is a compilation of the 231 conversations my toddler and I have had about the house we’re building.

I hope you find her insights helpful.

Me: Hey, so what do you think about the house we’re building?

Toddler: Daddy’s building me my pink house… Alex and Tibi [our builders] are building our house.

Me: But you know it’s not pink, right? It’s going to be black.

Toddler: * blank stare *

Me: Alex and Tibi are actually building us a black house.

Toddler: No mama, it’s going to be pink…. and it’s going to have a flag at the top…. and it’s going to be lovely.

Me: Okay. So, who is going to live in the pink house?

Toddler: Me.
