It's too tight

Anni pulled on her bib, "Help!  I'm being stranguled!"

Art critic



Yesterday Moo and I were reading a lovely book about Matisse that we borrowed from the library.  Moo liked this painting in particular.  I asked her why:

Moo:  'Cause it's got boobies............. and feet and orange butts!

Well,  I know that's what I look for in an art work.......

Foxy, I'm a doctor and you need to be careful of your band aid. (cont. below)

(cont.)
And you just need to lie down and I'll put your clothes on.  Be still and don't be silly.
Now you're ready for school.  Put on your back pack.
And here's your bucket so you can fetch water.
Don't forget your hat.  Here you are.
Have you got your lunch?  I made you a hamwich. (= ham sandwich)
All ready for school!
Mum!!!    Fox is going to school now.  Say bye bye, please.
Let's go, Foxy. 
See ya!
Anni climbing in the playground:
"I'm the king of the castle. 
Actually, I'm not a King.  I'm a 'lay-dee' and  I'm making pancakes with jam.  Would you like one?"

At the grocer:
"Let's get grapes Mum.  I like them.  They make me soooo happy."

In the car:
"I'm going to Scarlett's party.  She's my best friend.  She's got a party dress and I've got a party dress and we're having birthday cake and balloons and candles and cakes and Scarlett's pretty and Anni's pretty........." (and somewhere during this conversation Mum stopped listening..... but Anni kept going the whole way to the party!)

Where do they learn this stuff?

Mummy: "Wave goodbye to Daddy.  He's going to work now."
Anni:  "Daddy's going to work to .  To get sixty bucks.  To buy my toys."
