Here are just a few of the many, many things that my sweet 4 year old Ally has said in the last few days...
"Mommy, if there was a chameleon on the Christmas tree, it would turn dark green and we wouldn't be able to see it. But if it was on the ornaments, it would change to all of the colors. Right?"
-----------------------------------------------
Ally: How do you spell S?
Me: You can't spell letters. Letters spell the words. S is just S.
Ally: But listen. Sound it out, Mommy. Eeeeeee like Egg. Sssssss like snake.
Me: I know. It's hard to understand but you don't spell S.
Ally: *Sigh* How do you spell C?
Me: "You can't spell C. It's a letter."
Ally: But listen! Mommy, you are forgetting to sound it out. Ssssss like snake. Eeeeee like easy.
Me: It does have those sounds but the letter C does not start with S.
Ally: Not the letter C. *rolling her eyes* I mean C like I SEE A CAR.
Me: Oh.
-------------------------------------------------------
"Mommy, I know Pawpaw is in heaven. People just keep crying cause they're not used about it. I mean used to it. They just gotta get used to it bein' like that. Then they will smile."
--------------------------------------------------------
"I'm glad I'm not a turkey. Cause they eat turkeys on Thanksgiving. But I am an Indian. Walker might be a turkey though. Walker, can you say GOBBLE? *pause* Well, I think he is a turkey after all. Uh-oh. We might have to eat him for Thanksgiving."
-----------------------------------------------------------
"I just wanted to sleep all day. Cause I'm never that tired at nap time or at bed time. But in the mornings I just wanted to sleep all day. Cause my bed is warm. Can I not go to school today? I'm going to sleep all day." *giggling under covers*
------------------------------------------------------------
"I want to wear a fancy silky dress to school today. I won't get it dirty. I'll even wear my church shoes and stay clean. I need to be fancy for school today.".....insert mom saying no..... "But I can't be a princess with my silky dress and my kitty. So I have to wear my fancy dress and take my kitty to school, Mommy.".......insert me telling her we have to follow the dress code and the rules say no toys at school... "No one wants to let me be a princess. Grrr."
------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the things that my little man of few words, two year old Walker, has said in the last few days...
"Mommy."
"Ally."
"Oh-Hoh" which we think means dog in Chinese or something.
"Daddy do it."
"How?"
"Me do."
"Mommy get it."
"Moo cow"
"No."
"No."
"No."
"No."
"No."
"Oh man."
"No."
"No."
"No."
"Touchdown!"
-------------------------------------------------------------
Isn't it funny how different boys and girls can be? And it's not just the age... Ally was talking in PARAGRAPHS before her second birthday. She is talking even as I type this. She is saying...
"I could wear those white bride shoes and be Mary in these shoes and they would match my pink dress and they would fit and I can wear these shoes today. Ha-ha-ha. Are they on the wrong feet? These ones? I can only wear them with socks so they don't give me blisters. Do you like these shoes I'm wearing? Me too. I can't hear the television. Turn the tv up! Please."
I just love being a mom! :)

Funny.. I was only part way through Ally's comments and thinking "she certainly IS a girl" :)) Oh! The joys of motherhood! I wish I would have written more down-because you forget.
Thank you for sharing. Precious!
