Express Yourself
Overheard this week:
* Evan: "Hold on, Madalyn, I'm trying to put your shoe on... this is unbelievable!"
Madalyn's response: "Okay."
*In a dramatic forcefully exhaled remark of frustration all too familiar to a noise I make: "UHHHR!"
*When Madalyn wouldn't play with him, Evan passed through the room and muttered under his breath in anger: "I am so upset with you, Madalyn!"
*In regards to the balloon she got at the store: "Don't pop it, Madalyn- you're going to pop it. Madalyn- you can pop it, or play with it... which do you want, Madalyn?"
*Evan, very sweetly before we left the house: "Do you want me to put your shoe on? Here, sit down, Madalyn. I'll put your shoe on."
*Another time, not so sweetly: "I'm trying to get your shoe on... I am so sick of this..."
*And said directly to me on more than one occasion: "Don't leader me, mommy!"
What? You didn't know that "leader" was a verb?
