My girlfriend has a daughter who will be five in December.  She is a petite, spunky, curly haired blonde with gorgeous blue eyes.  I call her Sinatra because of those eyes. I laugh often and hard at the things that come out of her mouth, but this one takes the cake.

Pitting her mother and father (who are going through a divorce) against each other, she told her father over the weekend, “My mommy doesn’t like your mom, but it’s a secret.”  Needless to say, he was quite bent out of shape and immediately called to discuss this.  After realizing that NO the mother of his child hadn’t decided it would be a good idea to tell her four year old a giant secret like I can't stand your grandmother and then send her off to her father’s house to see if she could keep it, they confronted Sinatra.  After admitting her lie and being handed her punishment, she promised never to do it again and my girlfriend loaded her spunky little liar into the car and headed home. 

In the car she questioned her daughter about her lie and explained how wrong it was.  After listening to the lecture, Sinatra looked at her mother and said, “Mommy, I meant to tell him that you wanted to be his mommy’s friend, but then I lost my mind.”

The end.
