Slow
My daughter is very verbose. Today, I said "he's a bit slow" and she said "his time processes aren't particularly right"
Bleached dummy
We bought the baby a bigger dummy (pacifier). It looks virtually the same as the old one, but is a pastel green not a bright green. My older daughter noticed the new dummy and asked "mum, why is her dummy bleached?"
Aristocats
"I'm watching the astro kitties!" says my daughter, as she sits down to watch Disney's Aristocats.
Slime
We had chicken fillets cut into pieces and cooked in sauce for dinner last night (Chicken Tonight style, if you are familiar with the brand). After dinner we were watching TV and there was an advert for KFC fillets, which comes with the "11 different herbs and spices" that I'm sure everyone knows.
My daughter piped up with "Mum, next time we have chicken fillets can we have the crispy ones not the slimy ones?"
So much for thinking I'd made a nice dinner.
Stupid cat
The cat was sitting on top of a bench and I patted her as I walked past. The cat reared up to smooch my hand, lost her footing, and almost fell off the bench. My daughter called out "Mum! The cat has lost her cleverness!"
