The Two Olivias

As most of you know, Mary Grace has a sweet little friend, Olivia. A few weeks ago just out of the blue, Mary Grace said, "Olivia's mommy said that Olivia really wears her out." I thought about this for a minute. I'm sure that Olivia may wear her mommy out from time to time, as any 4-year-old will, but I couldn't imagine Olivia's sweet mommy saying that to Olivia, especially with Mary Grace in ear shot. Well, a few days ago she said the same thing again. I really didn't know how to respond. Was this a statement that I was supposed to respond to or a question I was supposed to answer? I thought about it for a few minutes then it hit me. She's talking about Olivia the little pig from the Olivia books, not sweet Olivia Rogowski! Sure enough, in one of our Olivia books, Olivia's mommy says to Olivia, "You really wear me out but I love you anyway!"

  1. How funny! She does wear me out sometimes, but I think her brother is a bit more exhausting to me at present. What a hysterical little experience! Love it!
