Out of the Mouths of Babes

We had Haley over the weekend, she’s a smart, funny and sometimes very bratty almost 4 year old.

She thinks it’s funny to try to stick barrettes to Steve’s bald head, and she thinks it’s funny to tell him he’s a girl, she also loves to open the door, yell something and you and then slam the door.

After a morning of trying to stick clips to Steve’s head, and trying to get him to wear a headband or a tutu, he decided he needed to go to the gym.
Haley opened the door to the garage and yelled “Bye grandpa… don’t forget your purse” slammed the door, and ran away laughing.

Like most little girls, she loves to play dress-up, I handed her the majority of my dresses and she laid them all out in the dining room. She then informed me that they talk. I have a couple that could have been inspired by South American prints. When I asked her what they say, she said, “those ones say Spanish, and the rest say regular.”

When “Here Comes the Sun” came on the iPad, she knew a lot of the words, Steve asked her who sings that, she didn’t know, when he told her The Beatles, she said.
“No grandpa, Beatles don’t sing this song, no flies or other bugs or animals either, it’s some big men”

I asked her if she wanted a granola bar to hold her over until dinner and she said “no I want it to eat”
