Morning Drop-off Convo

In the mornings when I take AJ & Nathan to school, I also pick up Adam and Gianna (AJ's friend and his little sister).  Here's the conversation this morning:

Me: So Gianna, what did you do this weekend?

Gianna:  Nothing.  I went to my Grandma's yesterday.

Me: OH FUN!

Gianna: NO!  She's mean!  She's got a wooden spoon and she says it has our name on it!  She never takes us anywhere and she's not fun.  Once she took us to the mall and said we could pick something out and she would buy it for us... so we picked something, then she told us to put it back!

Nathan (in a small voice): when WE go to Grandma's, we bake cookies.
