The more I talk, the more language and expressions I pick up. Some of them surprise Mommy and Daddy because of how natural they sound and sometimes because of how adult they sound.
Today, Daddy was working in the garden while I was driving my Mercedes around. I asked Daddy, “Daddy, are you done?†He said that he wasn’t done yet and still weeding and taking care fo the garden. I said, “I thought you were done already.†That surprised Daddy because he didn’t know I knew the word “already”. There are so many words that I’m just picking up and using in conversation.
Sometimes Mommy and Daddy are more impressed with the expressions I come up with on my own. The other day when Daddy picked me up from school I told him, “I like walking with Daddy”, just out of the blue. I can let them know what I’m thinking and feeling. I also can be creative with letting them know how I feel. When eating pizza I said, “Eating pizza makes my tummy say ‘Yay!'”
