Time to Clean Up, Uh-huh, Uh-huh
Tiny is usually great at cleaning up the toys in the kids’ room when it’s time for breakfast. But yesterday morning, it was Buba who cleaned up all the toys while Tiny talked on her purple, plastic phone…
All Tiny:
“Hello, Nammy? It time clean up.”
“Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Mess, mess, mess!”
“Time clean up.”
“No, no Daddy. No work day. No work.”
“Uh-huh. Uh-huh.”
“No Nammy bacation. Nammy home.”
“Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Clean up.”
“Ok. Yep. Ludoo. Bye-bye!”
I love that her pretend phone calls give me some insights as to what she’s understanding. She clearly knew it was time to clean up the big mess in her room, even though she chose not to help. And she understood that T wasn’t going to work that day and maybe that we’d be going to Grammy’s house now that she’s home from her vacation.
Her “Ludoo” at the end is her pronunciation for Love you.
So cute. I think it’s so amazing that she has that much vocabulary!
