LP is interested in the French language because we've been a few times and she knows some basic words. Recently she wanted to learn her numbers so we helped her out. Unfortunately she hasn't got them quite right, and says: Un-done, trois, Catherine, cinq, says I almost don't want to correct her!!!

It's a shame we can't hear her saying it, bet she sounds really cute! The other day my son was making a poster and asked how loud was spelt, so I wrote it down for him. Then he asked how sweets was spelt. I wrote that too and asked what he was doing. He was doing a poster and had written 'I am not a....! He wanted to put it on a tree to let everyone know. It is sweet the little things they do.

these cute little sayings are wonderful...........my son , for ages, talked about 'falamingos' and looked for 'parcarps' and my grandaughter would ask to watch the ' terryishun' or to buy a magameen. they all seem to be corrected very quickly so enjoy them while you can.

Reminds me of a little girl I once knew called Alice aged three. Her Dad had just finished digging his garden and had raked it all in readiness for seed planting. Alice decided to walk all over it! Dad said to her:
"Alice, you're a bad girl"
She replied "Am I? I'd better have an aspirin then".
Bless.

All your stories have made me laugh - kids are so great! I keep a note of some of the best things LP has come out with, the two above included. It's such a shame when they grow out of it I think!

I remember hearing of a child referring to a butterfly as a flutterby, and it seemed much more appropriate.
And as a schoolboy for years I thought the line in the Lord's Prayer was:
Hello be thy name
instead of Hallowed be thy name
I never questioned the nonsense.

In fact I'm not even sure you can be puverised byt a car, but she obviously liked that word for the day she picks up some weird words - for the last year she's been talking with an american accent more often than she does english and last week she started speaking northern she obviously likes words and language and talking because she talks non stop

My sister was telling me last night that her grandson, aged 8, was at her house the other day and asked her what was in a jar in the kitchen. She told him it was marmalade. He replied "Ugh marmalade!! I hate marmalade, if it was alive I'd kill it!"

Oh I like that Piggin - bless!!!
Some of LP's words (many of which she has now grown out of) are: mingo; mook; jam-juice; plenose; kellyhopter; blutterfly; bang-works; vegibles; punnkin; lickstick and lickbarn. Yep I make a note of them!!
Another classic she came out with at least a year ago now is: pigs have sausages. They lay them in their little nests. And sometimes they have kittens as babies.
And her interpretations of Christmas songs last year:
I wish me a merry Christmas and a happy New Zealand (my sister moved there last year)
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. Old Macdonald came to ride on a one horse open stay.
We all want some pretty pudding so bring it right here.

Have you ver read or heard any of the "terrible twos" that people used to send in to Sarah Kennedy on Radio 2? There really were some crackers. My favourite was about a little 4 year old girl called Julia.
Her Mum was having an extension built on the side of the house. Julia decided to help the builders and sallied forth with her bucket and spade. At the end of the week, she was very disappointed not to receive a wage packet like the rest of the builders. At the end of the second week, the builders put together a wage packet containing all their loose change for her. Pleased as punch, she dragged her Mum off to the local shop to spend some of her wages.
The shopkeeper was aware of what had been going on at Julia's house and so he asked her if she would be helping the builders next week. She replied:
"Oh, I don't know, it depends on whether the f***ing bricks arrive!"
Her Mother made sure that Julia did not "work" with the builders again.
