A Birthday Card

Miss M's birthday is coming up shortly.  I have a wonderful sister-in-law who never misses sending a card.  She's amazing!  Miss M opened her card this morning, and her first comment was quite indicative of her personality:  "Oooh.  Sparkly!"  Cute little girl...

Commentary on Planet Earth

Our friend Derek invited us over to watch the documenatry Planet Earth on his giant tv. The girls were impressed.


Miss A: I’m a leopard that eats big sharks.

Miss M: I don’t want to ride on it. (A shark.)

Miss M: I don’t have a tail! See- I don’t!

Miss M: The ammals on you tv need a drink?

Daddy: What was your favorite part?  Miss M: The ammals.  Miss A: The deers.

Miss A: My leopard (imaginary) is going to sleep with me.

Comparisons...

Miss A:  Mama, where's Sadie (the cat)?
Mama:  She's probably taking a nap somewhere.
Miss M:  Why?  (This is usually Miss M's conversational contribution...)
Mama:  That's what cats do.  Take lots of naps.
Miss A:  Like Daddies take lots of naps.

Merry Christmas!

Miss A Just Woke Up...

"Hi Mom.  I dreamed I had lots of teeth."  "Like a dinosaur?"  "No.  And I saw cheetahs.  Lots of baby cheetahs.  And I dreamed about a rainbow and me.  Not a girl.  A big guy.  From starlight.  Uh uh.  A boy rainbow.  He has lots of light sabers."

Anatomy

Miss A: Our cats had all their girl parts removed.  That's why they can drink milk.

While Coloring...

Miss A:  Look at her tail!  And I know Ariel's breast holdings are purple...  And I know she lives in the sea and her eyes are blue.  That's how it goes.
