Conversation with a 3.5 year old ~
KPaw - I'm off to work. One day you will go to work too Pryscilla
P - No I won't
KPaw - Why do you say that?
P - Girls don't go to work, just boys go to work
This is most likely a "Pryscillaism" (term coined by my dad) from our recent conversation that went a little something like this:
One afternoon, the girls were wondering where daddy was. I told them he was at work. They then proceeded to ask me, "mommy you don't work"? I laughed first, then explained, yes of course I work, but I get to do it at home. I take care of you munchkins all day long and believe me that is work!!! Then they laughed at me, and said "nooo that not work". I said, well I do other work too - I do all of that work for the sick babies, you know when you go with me to my meetings. Then I also work on the computer doing art and computer stuff. But yes you're right mommy doesn't go to work, so she can stay home with you! That's my most important job - to take care of you and our family! Who would have thought teaching them about their mommy & daddy's roles at 3.5 would result in an adorable little "pryscillaism" that girls don't work!! Amazing little minds that I'm very blessed to be shaping. She may not have it right BUT there is an underlying value in there I'm happy to build upon. Dad called me to tell me about this tonight and how serious she was when this little convo happened; I told him yeah in this house we're taking it back old school traditional :) Haha.
Here's another...
Eden is swimming at the house with my mom. The jets are making currents in the pool and she is swimming toward the current which is pushing her away. She asks my mom why the water is pushing her away and if it's because "the water don't like me"???? Tooooo precious!!!!
