WETHERSTON WANDERINGS: What a difference a day makes (or a lot of days)

Emma's Musings & Will's words

"Muskik" - music

"Speekool" - Playschool

"I can't like this one anymore" - referring to anything she doesn't want to eat, if she's had enough to eat, or if she is done with a particular toy.

"I'm a daughter of mummy and daddy . . .and William is a monkey"

"mummy you so proud of me" (gotta love potty training praise)

"William, did you know that Jesus died on the cross and rose again three days later?"

Mum, can I have some more "bluebabies"? (blueberries)

Mum: 'Emma eat your dinner'; E: 'But the spiders are eating my dinner . . .because they want some'.

E: "Mummy, where's daddy?" me: "Are you playing hide and seek?" E: "No. I'm playing HIDE!"

"ready I come...here or no-ot!"

E: "Lyle, what is that called?"; Lyle: "No Emma, you don't call me Lyle you call me Daddy." E: "But why does Liz call you Lyle?"

W: "Belly Butty!" (pointing to his belly button)

Will has begun running around the house with one armed raised yelling "Super-William!" (and super-mummy; super-daddy; super-Emma)

"Aminal" (which Emma says, instead of 'Animal')

"Mum, I prayed to Jesus by myself that I could be good like Him [smile]" - Emma (she humbles me).

E: "mass-of" (massive)

W: "easy peasy lemon juice!"

W: "Eeny meeny miney mo, catch a tiger, bite his toe..."

W: "mum, I winned you" (instead of beating me - why is everything a race with 3 year old boys?!)
