Elena, sitting on the potty without her shirt on, feeling her long hair on her back: It's wong, mommy!
Me: Yeah, honey, it's growing really long!
Elena: Almost I will be a woman!!
 |
| Not sure where she got this idea about womanhood and long hair...or what it says about me right now... |
Me: Why, Lucas?
Lucas: Then we'll always know who is who!
In the car after school, Elena sees some graffiti on the walls: (shouting indignantly) Somebody dwawed on the walls! Who was it? Maybe it was God!!
At the dinner table,
Lucas: Mommy! That baby is leaking from her mouth!
And a wonderful conversation between the two of them, in the car, after driving around the block in a vain effort to secure a parking spot:
Lucas: they're not sharing!
Elena: I like shawing,
Lucas: I like cars, but now they're mean, because they're not sharing; the road or the parking lots...
Elena: Dirty cars!
Lucas: Yeah, poopy cars, they're like little disobeying babies!
And just so Leila doesn't feel left out...

I have two sons, 6 & 3. I call them both Bubby. It's fine most of the time, and context clues usually help everyone know which one we're talking about. Over the weekend I said to her, "Can you go give this to Bubby?" And she gave me a really strange look and said "Which one?!"
ReplyDeleteMy oldest would explain to strangers that her baby sister was a 'girl even though she has short hair.
ReplyDeleteGreat list!
These are all so funny! Cecilia's really into what will make her a woman, too - she's convinced that when she is old, she'll wear the same clothes I wear (like, the exact same clothes, even undergarments) and nurse her own babies and THEN she will be a woman...
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up :)
