Some of the funniest things in life are the little things that people, especially kids, say and do. On that note, I want to share what I like to call “Kateisms.
Kate was in her room playing with Snickers. I was secretly watching from the doorway and this is what I heard. “Sneeeekers, I will be the beautiful princess and you can be my dog…….Spaaaarky.”
We were getting ready to leave for Carter’s T-Ball practice and Kate was giving me a hard time about what shoes she wanted to wear. I told her to wear her new flip flops that I made her. In her whiniest of voices she asked me why she had to wear those. “Because they are cute”, I replied. Then she said, “but mummy, I am already cute!”
My mom, Kate and I went to the nail salon for a mani/pedi. As some of you may know, it is sometimes difficult to understand the Vietnamese manicurist when they talk to you. When it was Kate’s turn, the lady took her by the hand and led her to her chair and began painting Kate’s fingers and toes. A few minutes went by and I looked over and there was my three year old daughter having a lengthy conversation with the Vietnamese manicurist! Obviously, Kate spoke her language!
Mark was going to take Carter and Kate outside to practice ball. Carter puts his cleats on and gets his gear together and announces that he is ready to go outside. Kate starts screaming “wait, wait, let me get my stuff!”. I told her to get here shoes and meet me in the living room. Moments later she comes bursting into the room shouting “I’m weddy to play ball daddy!”. (She came out wearing her pink fur lined boots, extra Cinderella lip gloss, and carrying her shiny pink satin purse.) Yep, she is going to be a ball player alright!
Kate: “Mummy, when is brudder’s birthday?”
Me: “Next Thursday.”
Kate: “When is my day, mummy?”
Me: “In about six months.”
Kate: “(gasp), No, no. I think all days should be Katie day!” “Can we do that mummy?”
