1) Sitting in bed chatting after story time a bit before leaving the room....
"Mamma. I just got .....(starts counting on her fingers)....one, two, free, ....four pwinces! Sam, Timo, Lev and Pappa."
Wow Jozie!
2) On the bus this morning, she sat behind Timo (who arrived juuust in time as he was held up with a last minute poop he decided he needed. Grrrrreat!). Anyway, Josephine had her nose pressed tightly to the teeny weeny gap between the two seats in front of her to get a view. And that's the last I saw of her and can only imagine she enjoyed her fine ride to KG this morning more than ever.
3) Upon picking her up early from KG this afternoon, she sat in the front with me and in a very relaxed way told me about her day. Then, out of the blue she said "Lass dass, bitte." (which means: please stop it)
"Excuse me?" I said. "Lass dass, bitte. Dats just what Timo said to me today."
"Oh! Why did he say that to you?"
"Cos I was just stwoking him."
Me....a little speechless....my daughter stroking a 5 year old's arm with that dreamy look in her eye?....
"But don't wowwy Mamma. He's going to get used to me doing dat."
....speechless once again. Hello!?!
Btw: apparently totally normal behaviour for 3-? year old girls!!! I checked with her teacher who just smiled and said I shouldn't worry! And so, we continue to talk about her days and in other times I tell her how nice it is to have friends. I think she sees it as her role now to find a suitable husband.....that's what she sees all grown up ladies with...and she wants to be BIG. ;-)
