Oh, this little girl…

She says, “Mummy, can I have one of these africots?”

And

“Is this adocado ripe now?”

And

“It’s so hot outside… I need some sunscream.”

She is nearly four-and-a-half. I’m not in a rush to correct these little words of hers… she’s become long and lean, and nimble. And wise.

It’s the last of the baby in her. *sniff*

    Yay! It’s Grumble Girl. 

    Err, why don’t you just have another child?

    Because I’d be committed to a mental facility far too quickly, and all our fun would be forever spoiled, Charles.  Let’s have some wine instead.   ;)

    Aw, she’s so lovely. Enjoy what’s left of the baby-ness.

  • Grumblegirl

    Thanks, Fran… sometimes I wish time would just s-l-o-w- down, you know?  Le sigh.

    Thanks for reading!

    i don’t dare correct my miss james when she says her words wrong. there will come a time when she”l do it on her own. although it did take the twins until they were about 8 to realize that syrup was not indeed “seer-ee-up.”

    Oh she is soooo cute! That must be a sniffle moment to realize your baby is grown up. I’d like to preserve my baby forever. Ha! Guess that’s why people can’t help having more than one!

  • Grumblegirl

    I’m going to pronounce it “seer-ee-up” from now on.  Oh my sweet…  xox

    Your baby will be big in such a blink, it’s incredible… but that’s why cuddling and just smelling their little heads is so wonderful. And pictures. LOTS of pictures. Just when you think they’ve hardly changed, you look back a month or two and see a world of differences… it’s the closest thing to witnessing magic in your own house.   :)
