Almost every night Emma gets out of the bed and says, “I meed to tell you sumpin…”
“What Emma? What is it?”
“Um….I wub you berry much.”
“I love you, too. Get back in the bed. Now.”
Tonight she came out of her bedroom, walked up to Shuggie and said, “I meed to tell you about bobcats.”
WHAT? I couldn’t even put her back in the bed. I was riveted. What did my 3 year old know about bobcats? I’m thinking she deserves a prize for Most Original Reason to Get Out of the Bed.
(Apparently, in Emma’s mind, “Bobcats eat wats, but wats eat people.” I assured her that the food chain was, human>bobcat>rat…but she was pretty skeptical.)
Sooo, bobcat for diner?
Cute.
That is awesome!
This is my Eli! He does everything he can to prolong going to sleep! He can come up with some of the most random things to tell me just so he can come back into the den. Never about bobcats, though!
Hey, she's a quick one!! I was always wondering what the 'correct' version of the food chain was!!
Your kids are darling, Robin.
Write their sayings down -there will be more of them. One daughter, at about age three, asked if we could have some of that well bread for dinner. "Well bread?", I asked.
"You know, like Black Beauty had."
Have a good day
