The conversation went something like this.
Farmgirl: "Quick Mum, we have to rescue Kim."
Me: "She's fine darling, just going for a run."
Farmgirl: "But The Mist Monster will get her."
Me: "There is no such thing as The Mist Monster."
Farmgirl: "But why is she running away? She must be running away from a monster"
Farmgirl was genuinely quite concerned, so I went on and tried to explain that sometimes grown ups run for exercise. This concept was obviously not meeting her approval. Eventually I gave in and said K was running "just for fun." Farmgirl obviously approved of running for fun because she nodded her head. Then looking a bit perplexed she looked out the window and said.
"Doesn't look very fun. That Mist Monster could be anywhere."
Given that it was freezing cold and the mist was very thick, I had to agree that it actually looked decidedly unfun. In the end I gave in to Farmgirl and we went and checked Kim was OK later. She thought it was hilarious and was able to reassure Farmgirl that she hadn't seen The Mist Monster at all.
Farmgirl Understands Running "Just For Fun" |
I hope everyone is having a great Thursday. We finished seeding last night and I am super excited!

Farmgirl is so adorable! :)
Wow she is so cute.
To me running is never for fun.
We have a dragon hiding in our mist on the nearby mountain.
And thank you we had a lovely Thursday, hope all those seeds start shooting soon.

Oh, that just made my heart melt. What a little darling. Kids imaginations are wild sometimes.
What a sweet little soul! I love that she was so concerned about Kim!
Aww your little Farmgirl is just too cute.
Good news the seeding is done.
TDM xx
How adorable... !! And quite logical really, mist can be like a monster and I expect to Farmgirl it looked as if it was swallowing up K!!What a poppet to be so concerned too. XX
Three cheers for Kim!
I'm struggling to get out of bed for exercise purposes on these brisk mornings.
And boo to mist monsters.
Too cute! Love that purple outfit xx
I have been thoroughly enjoying your posts! Cute kids, cute stories. It's good to hear the view of another country girl!
