If you're my FB friend, you probably see lots and lots of posts about my 3-year old and her funny/grown up little remarks and conversations that we have. It's never a dull moment with her around! Here are a few of the most recent things she has entertained me with...
She's obsessed with bugs, and everything is a spider:
Savanna: Mom, come here, I want to tell you something.Me: You need to tell me something? Or show me something?
Savanna: I need to show you something.
(walking over to where she's stooped over.)
Savanna: I see lots of spiders.
Me: Those are ants, not spiders, and they won't hurt you, I promise.
Savanna: I think I need a flyswatter.
Me: Okay, go get it. Or just use your shoe...
(a few minutes later.)
Savanna: I got LOTS of ants on my shoe!
(Showing me the bottom of her shoe, where she's killed 3 ants)
Me: You go, girl.
She's incredibly curious about the moon and she's a true Mouseketeer:
Savanna: Mom! I found the moon!
Me: Oh, you sure did. There it is!
Savanna: I can't reach it, it's too high.
Me: Yep, the moon is wayy up there!
Savanna: Hmm, I think we need a mouseketool. Ohhh TOODLES!!
The concept of Big/Little is still mind-blowing right now. But she loves to remind me of how "big" I am (And apparently Crystal too!):
Me: Savanna, how would you feel about a brother or sister?
Savanna: Hmm, I want a big brother.
Me: Well, that's not exactly how it works. How about a baby brother or baby sister?
Savanna: No, I want a big brother like daddy.
Me: Oh, okay.
Savanna: Is daddy your big brother, momma?
Me: No, I don't have a brother. I have a sister, Aunt Crystal. She's my baby sister.
Savanna: Aunt Crystal's not a baby. She's big, mom, like you.
Me: Awesome. We'll talk about this later. ;)
