Sophia: I want a baboon.
Me: You want a baboon?
Sophia: I want a baboon.
Me: A baboon, or a balloon?
Sophia: A baboon.
(I give her the purple balloon on the floor.)
Sophia: Thank you, Dada.
Me: No problem : )
Laura: What did you dream about?
Sophia: I dreamed about Elmo and Jesus.
(PS: Laura says that Elmo and Jesus is a recurring dream for Sophia, and they're always playing with a ball : )
Me: Hey, Sophia, your shirt says "Daddy's little girl." Are you Daddy's little girl?
Sophia: No, it says "Mama's the Best!"
Me: It says "Daddy's little girl."
Sophia: No, it says "Mama's the Best!"
(Repeat 3x more)
Me: Look, it spells D - A - D - D - Y.
Sophia: No, it spells "Doggy."
Me: Doggy's little girl?
Sophia: Yes.
Me: Close enough....
Me: Are you precocious, Sophia?
Sophia: No, I'm a toddler!
Me: Ok then.
Laura: How old are you, Sophia?
Sophia: I'm two. Dada's three.
"I found a shirt. It says 'Daddy's the Best!' You want to wear it? No, it's mine!"
(The onesie actually says "My Mommy is the Best!" : )
Sophia: I need a baby brother, Dada.
Me: I thought she wanted a sister?
Laura: I told her that her shoes are too small, so I have to put them away if she has a baby sister some day. And if she has a baby brother, I'll sell her shoes.
(So she'd rather have a baby brother, than share her shoes with a sister?!...Hmmm.)
