Not unlike other kids this age, Samara tells it like it is. When you ask her to talk in a quiet voice, she answers back, "No, I want to talk in a LOUD NOT QUITE VOICE (volume increased A LOT)". I especially love when she pats my chest and says in a LOUD voice, "these are for mother's milk".
A few months ago Ben asked what she'd had to eat that day because she hadn't eaten dinner. I replied, "oh just some crackers." From the other room, she called out, "No, papa I had pink donuts today." Nice. Thanks, Samara. Last time you're getting those instead of real food.
Since she's been wearing 'underwears' we've tried to teach her about being modest, keeping her dress down so as to not show off her underwear. This morning as we were getting ready for church I told her we needed to put the bloomers on to cover her underwear so she'd be modest. She replied, "I don't want to be modest. I want to be a nudey." So there you have it, folks. She speaks on behalf of all of us here in this hot and humid environment. We don't want to be modest. We want to be exhibitionists.
Gray and Samara apparently don't have a "whisper" setting on their voice box. I can't get Gray to whisper to save my soul.
ReplyDeleteAnd the "nudey" comment? Oh my gosh, this girl cracks me up!
Every summer I briefly consider joining a nudist colony. And my two youngest still haven't mastered that quiet voice. I wish they would.
ReplyDeleteShe'd fit right in here, because my kids love to be nudey. Who doesn't, reallly? :)

She sounds hilarious! At least she doesn't mince words! Heck, I wanted to go "nudey" all the time when we lived in the Caribbean!
ReplyDeleteWay to say it like it is Samara!
lol, I LOVE writing down all the things my kids have said over the years. . .and now they love it when I read it back to them. Very funny.
ReplyDeleteHa!!! She's cracking me up!
ReplyDeleteI just want to know where she learned how to use that word in the correct context. . . :) I'm still laughing about the pink doughnuts too.
ReplyDeleteShe is such a cutie! That is so funny!
ReplyDeleteHa! Ha! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe she's wearing "big girl underwear"
