The Converstations of Three Year Olds

Last night Addilece was leaning on her arm (sitting on the ground, hand on the ground, arm up).  Little Man decided that would be a good spot to sit and so started our adventure into Convenient Care and X-Ray Land (thankful it's just "hurt", not broken).  The conversations Addilece had with the nurses was hilarious.

What is your name and when is your birthday?

My name is Addilece.  And I already had my princesses birthday but I don't know when my next birthday is.

What happened?

Little Man, he sat on my arm and it hurt a lot.  Now it only hurts a little bit though.  I don't know why he sat on my arm.

When did this happen?

Well, we were going to go to the pool but then Little Man sat on my arm.  It was right after Quiet Time.  And we had already read Charlotte's Web.

Who is Little Man?

Well, he's not my Prince.  Big Brother is my Prince.  Little Man is Baby Girl's Prince, not MY Prince.

Do you have a job yet? (small talk from the Doctor)

No. 

Why Not?

Because I just have chores.

Oh, do you vacuum?

No, that's what Big Brother does.

Then later on the phone with Daddy....

What's the verdict?

Well, I got lots of stickers.  Not because I'm special but because I did good.  I did really good getting my picture (x-rays) taken.  So they gave me lots of stickers.  And now we are at McDonald's getting supper.

Twigs

Addilece had found a "rolly polly" bug and placed it in her bug jar from VBS.  We had sent her outside to find some "little sticks" to place in it for the rolly polly to climb on.

A few minutes later she came in declaring that should couldn't find any.  So mommy went outside to help her.  I found a stick and handed it to her.

Me: Here's one.
Addilece:  NO!  Not a TWIG, mom!!!

Cheeseburger

The kids where singing the following song from Veggie Tales:

"God is bigger than the boggy man.  He's bigger than Godzilla or the monsters on tv."

Suddenly I hear Baby Girl singing this:

"God is a cheeseburger.  God is a cheeseburger.  God is a cheeseburger."

The Parent

Addilece was being bossy to Baby Girl

Me: "Addilece quit being her parent.  She already has enough of those."
Addilece: "I'm not being  her parent, I'm just telling her what to do."

Bloody Nose

Addilece thinks a snotty/runny nose is a bloody nose.

Big Brother sneezes....

Addilece: BLOODY NOSE!!!
Big Brother: It's NOT a bloody nose, it's a snotty nose.
Addilece: I don't know whether it's bloody or snotty. I'm ONLY in PreK!!!!!

Brown

Big Brother:  "Mom is there something brown above my lip."

It took a lot to hold back the first comment that came to my mind: "Child you are bi-racial of course there is brown above your lip."

Eating Heads

We were hiking during our camping trip.  One of the trails we were on had signs about the trees.  One of these trees was used to make golf club heads.  This greatly perplexed Baby Girl.  For the rest of the hike she wanted to know:

"WHY do we EAT people heads?"

A Miracle

We were out garage saling and Addilece found a Princess Place Mat.  She informed me that this was something to set on the table and if anything spilled then it would spill on that and keep the table clean.  I mumbled, "Wouldn't THAT be a miracle".

A few minutes later I heard her telling Big Brother this:

"This is mat that I set on the table.  Then I can eat on it.  And if I spill it will keep the table clean.  It's a miracle!!"
