We were at toddler story time at the library and Emmy was listening intently to the librarian. She was talking about the word JUNGLE, and said an animal name for each letter. I agree some of the animal names were a bit strange...
J = jaguar
U = umbrella bird
N = night monkey
G = gorilla
L = lion
E = elephant
When the librarian was done explaining the animals, Emmy turned to me and whispered, "I don't think she is telling the truth."
I don't remember how this conversation started, but we were talking about how God is always with you and always takes care of you. With that Emmy looked surprised and asked, "Is Daddy God???"
On Tuesday, I had to pick Reese up early from ESP to get to dance pictures. I told Reese that morning that she would still be going to ESP, but I would be coming about 3:00 or 3:15 to pick her up. I could see Reese's mind churning, and she quickly told me her thought process, "Ok, so this is what you do. First, check for us having snack in the cafeteria. If we are not there, walk down the hallway and peak into the ESP room. If we are not there, then come outside to the playground." She's our little thinker and planner.
Similar to above, on the way to school this morning, I saw her friend Mara's minivan pulling out of her driveway. We didn't know that Mara lived there, so I told Reese that I would show her Mara's house on the way home from school today. Reese loves Mara, so was very excited about this, until she thought through the process and said, "But on the way home from school we'll be on the other side of the road and I won't be able to see Mara's house as well. So maybe you can show me today after school again in the morning when I can see better." She thinks SO HARD about everything. I hope this doesn't give her an ulcer some day.
