Ernie, as you know, hardly spoke English last year. However, that all changed around Christmas time. We're constantly...amazed at the things that she says *grin*

Ernie to Mom-Mom, as MM buckled her into the car: "You're the right guy."

Telling me the story of "Hoodwinked"
Ernie "And then the guy said..."
Mom "Don't you mean the bunny?"
Ernie "No. Wait, Mom. I tell you the truth."

As we walk in the door from meeting Daddy at the bus stop
Ernie "Daddy? We go outside, and you put me in big blue swing. You push me hiiiigh, and I say "Wheeeeee!" Kay?"

After Daddy called her in from the deck for dinner
Daddy "Go wash your hands, kay?"
Ernie "Why?"
Daddy " Because when we play outside our hands get dirty."
Ernie "Ohhhhhh...when we play outside, our hands get dirty. When we eat toast, our face gets dirty."

Keep your fingers crossed that I can catch her on tape tomorrow telling the story of Jonah and the Whale. It's been our scripture story every night this week- she's getting quite good at reciting it back *grin*
