So Lizzie and I are at the bakery today (a rather small store with several customers), and she notices a boy (about 4-5 years old) there with his dad. The dad is trying to help his son pick a treat. It was a sweet father/son interaction & Lizzie was playing close attention. She then says...in a rather LOUD voice..."Mommy, do I have a daddy?"What???
Seriously??
Lizzie has a daddy who:
*gives her a bath every night (in the cool tub)
*gets her out of bed every morning & makes her breakfast
*plays tea party with her
*basically has him wrapped around her little finger
(it's starting to sound like Lizzie doesn't have a mom...she really just has a dad who recognizes that mom needs a break now & then...)
So, yea...with me blushing, my illegitimate child and I left the bakery.

That is so funny!! Maybe she meant "Where is my Daddy?"
Too funny!! I hope you at least bought something before you left.
OH MY GOSH THAT IS AWESOME!!!! Just wait until she can write....she'll write a letter to her Deadbeat Daddy someday asking him why he was never around for her childhood!!
That is hilarious!! I love it!
That's where I would say "Honey - remember daddy is shooting on location with Brad Pitt! We'll see him when we fly out there next week!"
It's tough being a single parent. Hee hee.
How funny :-)!
That is sooo funny!
Jax used to say that all the time when Zach played baseball. :)
She is too funny!
SOOO funny! I would have told her we should buy and extra treat for dad (and then I would eat it on the way home!)!
gee tell john to step it up, seriously. I mean, I am pretty sure Brooklyn knows she has a daddy. That is a classic story. I am laughing!!!!
I say Daddy makes the bakery run next time!!
You should have milked it and tried to get free baked goods.
Then again, honesty about the non-lack of a parent is probably the best thing for your child's long-term psyche.
Oh my gosh Annemarie..That is the best post ever!! I was laughing so hard!! haha :)
That was fabulous. I totally snort/laughed at your saying that you left the bakery with her, "illegitimate child". So good...embarrassing...but good!
I love those pictures with Lizzie and...who is that with her?
At least you left with a good laugh...and hopefully a chocolate twist donut.
That is so funny! Please tell me you went somewhere else though for a donut.
out of the mouths...what a little stinker.
that reminds me of when my sister told the nursery leader, "my mother NEVER rocks me"--my mom rocked her for an hour every night!
That is so funny. Little kids say the darndest things!
Sometimes don't you just wish the floor would open up and swallow you?
Does she call John by a different name like Papa or something? Poor fatherless Lizzie. Poor sleazebag single mom Anne Marie.
That's a good one.Poor you!
When I had Norah, she was 'baby girl Wright' instead of baby girl Griffiths because I never changed my name(I have since). A nurse actually asked me if I was sure if Brad was the father.
don't you just love it when kids embarass you????
Too bad John is not more hands on!! Don't you love the things they say?
