And for you today, we have a random assortment of recent thoughts from our 3 year old.
———————————
On the Lawn Maintenance Business.
The lawn maintenance workers were doing fall cleanup, leaf-blowing outside. W4 was leaving for work.
WV: Bye Daddy, have fun at work! Say hi to Bill and Marc for me! [He says this every day about the guys Daddy works with.]
Daddy: Okay!
WV: Say hi to the guys who are lawning!
Daddy: Okay!
WV: Don’t take their stuff, okay, Daddy?
Daddy: Okay!

Misunderstandings
Me: Are you bored?
WV: No, I’m not bored, I’m Wally.

Me: This is a nativity. That’s Mary, that’s Joseph, the mommy and daddy.”
WV: And that’s the baby.
Me: Baby who?
WV: No, that’s not Baby Who. That’s Baby Jesus!

To dad making bean burgers
Daddy, what is that? Is that yucky? Are you playing with dirt?
——–
Wearing sunglasses
WV: Is the sun not up today?
———————————
Adult speak.
W4: What did you think of my suit?
WV: Cool. Fist bump, Daddy.
———————————
Play wrestling with Dad.
WV: Hey, you don’t push friends.

Understandings
Wv: Can I watch a movie?
Me: Not tonight.
Wv: Okay, I’ll ask daddy.

At Clare Oaks Retirement Center
WV: What’s that for? (pointing at the nurse call button in the bathroom stall)
Me: That’s what people press if they are in trouble and need help.
WV: Oh, because everybody is falling in the toilet?
Wise words 🙂
Several of these made me laugh out loud, but my favorite is “Hey, you don’t push friends.” Love, love, love what comes out of the mouths of babes. Wally Ben never fails to entertain. 🙂
Mollie–you and Wally will treasure these as time goes by but Wally V will even more when he’s a teenager! Keep them coming!
