It's about time Addi had her on blog! She certainly has a lot to say on pretty much every subject, and she gives great advice! I'm very proud to be Addi's cousin, and I love her too!

Addi I love you so much. The visit last night was great. I cannot wait till our tea party, I can't wait to get all dressed up in our "fancy" clothes as you say. Zac and Jazz were talking about it after you left last night and Jazz told Zac to wear what he wore to church Sunday he looked "HOT" LOL. I love you and your brother and sister. I hope Levi's head is ok for the attack of the cat.

Leslie is such a good listener. Addi loves to talk it up with her. It's funny!

I hear that Addi gives some great dating advice. Maybe we could get a post on all the advice she has given her Leslie:)

Oh my goodness. Yes, Addi's dating advice is legendary. I will post excerpts from a couple of conversations....

Dating Conversation One:

Addi: Hey Leslie, I think you should have kids so you won't be lonely.

Leslie: Well, I'm really not lonely now. I have lot's of friends.

Addi: Yeah, but I think you should have kids so you won't be lonely.

Leslie: Well, I would have to find a husband first.

Addi: Yeah, if you had kids that would be so cool.

Some time passes conversing about other topics.... about five minutes later:

Addi: Hey Leslie, maybe you should spend some time on Saturdays looking for a boyfriend so you can get a husband.

Leslie: Yeah, I've haven't had much luck with that. Where do you think I should look?

Addi: Hey, do you ever go to WalMart?

Leslie: You think I can find a boyfriend at WalMart?

Addi: Yah!

Leslie: Well, we don't have many WalMarts, but we do have Targets. Do you think I could look there?

Addi: Yah!

Leslie: Well, what section do you think I should look in?

Addi: Hmmm. Hey Leslie, how old are you? You have to find a guy who is the right age.

Leslie: I'm 35.

Addi: You should look in the toy section and where they sell birthday gifts and Valentine's Day gifts.

Leslie: Really?

Addi: You just walk up and say, "Are you married?" If they say no, they can be your boyfriend, and then you can fall in love, get married and have babies.

Dating Conversation Two (This occurred several days after Dating Conversation One):

Leslie: Addi, I went to the drug store and looked in the card section, but I couldn't find any single guys.

Addi: You need to go where they sell (couldn't understand the word, but thought she said "toys".)

Leslie: Where they sell toys?

Addi: No, where sell (again I couldn't understand her but it sounds like "toys".)

Leslie: Where they sell toys?

Addi: NO. Where they sell (I still can't understand her, but it sounds like "toys".) Like a Hardware Store.

Leslie: Ohhhhhh, tools!

Addi: Yeah!

Leslie: Why should I go there?

Addi: Because guys HAVE to go there because they need tools to build things and fix things.

Leslie: Ohhhhhh

At first I thought this was funny. However, look what somebody sent to me when I relayed Addi's story to them:

She is one smart cookie!

My other favorite dating advice:

She related to me her idea about the poster where you have the guy sign up for a chance to be your boyfriend. I explained to her I thought that was a good idea, but I was concerned about attracting the wrong guy. She then explained, "That's why you write on there FOR-A-CHANCE!"

Age five and already mitigating risks! I love it. :)

Hehe!!!! I have cracked up several times hearing all the things she has told you. Ben decided last night that we should put one of those bill board things on her and let her walk around advertising for Pam a date. Maybe Paul and Kim would let her fly to California and she could be a walking bill board for you too, Leslie!!!
