Who's who at the Williamson house.

Bet ya didn't know that we have 3 children in our little family. Yep, Mckinley has been talking about her "older" sister Kiley for a few weeks now. We know she is 5 years old, she doesn't really like going to church and Mc talks about their adventures to the "quarium" and the zoo constantly. Little did I know, this person had been tagging along.  It is kind of creepy sometimes when you hear her playing and "talking" to Kiley, "you be Pinkie Pie, Kiley". She did inform me last week that Kiley has pink hair, blue socks and pink Toms. Research has served that "imaginary friends" are completely normal and actually quite indicative of a healthy imagination and excellent social skills. That sounds WAY better than creepy :)

Hammered however is another story. Yes, Hammered- as in the synonym one uses for an inebriated person. This my friends, is Mckinley's "boyfriend". We have yet to get a full description on him but apparently he comes swimming with us, pulled out all her library books and put them on the floor and can sing. For now, I guess the imaginary boyfriend variety are OK. Here's hoping she meets a REAL boy in pre-school that can serve in the boy-who-is-a-friend capacity.

You can't fault the kid for having an imagination. She can play for hours by herself, re-enacting the My Little Pony episodes or playing "festival" with her princess dolls. For now, we will let Kiley and Hammered stay to keep the peace.


We also find it quite funny that she names all of her squinkies- a few of my personal favorites (who get prayed for EVERY night): Stinkah (the skunk), Tigress (the Tiger), Kilah (who the heck knows), & Famous (the Lion). Thinking we may just let her name our next "REAL" kid (no, this is not an announcement).

Awesome. My kids have never had them so they are so funny to hear about. Maybe I've been missing out?
