Kiddo Speak

Overheard around the house this week.....

Annika: "Mama, I wish I had a green iris like you. Because green is my very favorite color." Then later, "Maybe someday my blue iris will turn green."

Daniel: "Aaaaaaaagghhhh!" (said in a very happy, joyful voice, especially when standing on top of a table).

Annika: "I just can't stop asking questions. It is very hard to stop talking. I cannot stop asking questions because it is too hard."

Daniel: "Up-ba?" (obviously, "up" is a two-syllable word. He states it first as a question and it quickly spirals into a demand).

Annika: "I am so very happy that we joined the Y. There are two Ys. One is in Oviedo and one is in Blanchard. The one in Oviedo has a top on the pool, and the one in Blanchard does not have a top on the pool. When can we go to the Y? Can we go right now?"

Daniel: "No. No No. Eeeehh!" (you can have whole conversations with Daniel, asking him a whole serious of questions with his opinion. "Yes" means "the absence of no.")

Annika: "An iPhone is a half-phone, half-computer. It is things for computers and things for phones. Can I play the paper-toss game on your iPhone? Can I spell Annika H. on the iPhone? Can I take a picture of you on the iPhone?"

Daniel: "Baaaaaaaa!!!!!" (a super-duper wuper excited voice, said while running around with the iPhone, chewing on the carrying case.)
