Sophie and I got back from Victoria last night and the trip was a major success. The only real low point was on the boat ride home. The Clipper travels through the Straits of Juan de Fuca which, we learned, can have rough waters. When we boarded, they suggested that we take anti-nausea medication as a preventative measure. I don't get sea sick, but I was worried about Sophie, so I got the meds for both of us.
I never threw up, but that was through sheer force of will. The attendants kept asking me if I was okay. I didn't want to scare Sophie, so I said "yes." Meanwhile, I was DYING!!!! Sophie, on the other hand, was happy as a clam–chatting, singing, crawling under the table, spazzing out. It was bleak—the longest hour and a half of my life. And then it ended as soon as we passed through the straits and I was fine.
Anyway, here are two other choice moments from the trip:
On taking a nap in the afternoon...
Me: Let's go back to the room and take a nap!
Sophie: I don't want to.
Me: Really? I do.
Sophie: Mom, you don't always get what you want.
On the Fairmont...
Sophie: They really like me here.
Penis Envy
While we were away, KC was home with Ava. I know I just posted about how we're anti-nudity in our house, but when you're alone with a 2 year old, you kind of have to leave the door open when you shower. So...
[KC is in the shower and Ava comes in.]
Ava: What's that coming out of your butt?
KC: It's a penis. You don't have one.
Ava: I don't want one!
Me neither.
