Sentences and facts

When did my daughter grow up? I started documenting her words. Now it is sentences and facts. I have no clue how much longer I will document these small things but they give me so much pleasure to read and smile.

Here are some from the favorites list

“5 liters of petrol cost 3 rupees mommy”. Her make-up world sounds perfect huh?

*****************

“Butterfly fish change color at night when they sleep so that other fish like shark cannot eat them”. I am not sure where she heard of this. I am not sure if it is a fact. I need to check it out.

******************

We were waiting for R

“Where is da-da? I do not see him. I am waiting for him. I do not see my grandmother’s maapillai”

Quite a shocker!

***********

“Mommy, do you know you love me?”

**************

Pretend-play is very common in Poohsden these days. I have been everything from a thorn bush to a snake. I have also been kuttyma frequently.

I was once a baby monkey and kuttyma touches my head and goes

“Are you died baby monkey? “

************

“Hervey Bay sounds like herbivore”

************

She has planned her birthday party or should I say parties for the next 3 years

4th birthday party I want to celebrate at Polliwogs (a local play area). 5th birthday at museum and 6th in a beach in Australia”

************
During our latest trip to Australia, she started noticing different accents. She says “cucumber” with a typical Aussie accent and it amazes me how much she grasps.
************
I spell some words when I do not want kuttyma to understand many of my tentative plans. I also work with her on sight words and phonetics so she understands alphabets put together make words.
R: So what are plans?
Me: (blah blah blah). And dependent on how we feel, we can go to the P-L-A-Y place afterwards
Kuttyma: Mommy, what is P-L-A-Y?
I was tempted to tell her to mind her own business. But I did not
Me: It is play – P-L-A-Y is the way we spell play.
Kuttyma: P-L-A-Y – play (she beamed in pride)
I debated about learning another language.
