Third Cousin Once Removed...


Tonight as we were getting ready for bed, Maddi and I were talking about her day and she said," I love Andrew so much." She told me she loved me and Daddy. She then began naming all our family members she loves. Here they are: ( and this is pretty much the order she put them in)
Cousin Ben
Cousin Emily
Sam
Annie
Greyson
Briahna
Brian
Cousin Edward
Becky
Jared
Tootsie (dog.)...(I'm not sure anyone in their right mind would name their child tootsie, but who am I to judge?)
Grandma
Grandpa
Cherilyn
The Bowling Alley
Julie
Laura
Rebecca
Cousin Rosemarie
Cousin Hyrum
Cousin Esther
Joseph
Roseanne
Nana
Papa
Spencer
Mandy
Alisha

Wait, rewind, the Bowling Alley? Who's that? I didn't know the Bowling Alley was in the family. Did someone marry the Bowling Alley and I wasn't invited to the wedding? Is there a special family discount on shoe rentals? If the Bowling Alley is in the family, then I want to talk to him (or her). Why can't there be more glow in the dark bowling? I think it's fabulous and it makes everyone look funny because the black lights accentuate the whites of their eyes and the lint on their shirts. I hope that isn't too much to ask, but we ARE family after all.

It only makes sense! She beat all her aunts, mom and Dad and Grandpa and Grandma plus Grandma Bushman at bowling. I would claim it too if I could keep the ball going straight instead of the left corner.

I was named after the bowling alley? I think I need more "Maddi time" so I can increase my ranking on her list!

ooh, does the discount extend to friends of the family?

I'm glad I "squeaked" by just ahead of the bowling alley. I am impressed that she can name that many people in an organized fashion.
