“Wunnie E-ow!!”
Oh my precious little Sarah Anne is TALKING UP A STORM lately!
She loves drawing with markers and whenever they are allowed to be used (under close supervision – she likes to draw on things other than paper – such as her legs, the carpet or the walls!) she immediately asks for “WUNNIE E-OW!” which means “Draw me a cat!” Everyone in the family has become proficient at drawing cats because if a cat is not on the paper within a matter of seconds, LOOK OUT! You will hear “Wunnie E-Ow!” until she wears you down!
This morning while I was eating toast she said, “Mama – I want toast!” When I started to cut mine in half to share with her she said, “No, Mama! I want my *OWN* toast!” She wasn’t mad or demanding. She was just so serious and she wanted me to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that she was not up for sharing a piece of toast!
If we call for her in the house (she likes to wander off and play up in the loft or with her dollhouse) she will answer back and say “I tummin’ Mama!”
She’s very sure of what she wants and now that she is forming complete sentences, she’s even more articulate about her needs. (Yes, I said NEEDS.) Often, she will tell us what she wants but lately she has starting telling us that she NEEDS things.
“Daddy – I need mo oatmeal!” “I NEED MO MOTE!” (milk) “I NEED MY JUICIE!” At bedtime after we leave the room she always hollers after us and says “I NEED MO WAHDOO!” (Water)
She’s also good about telling you when she does NOT want something.
Yesterday I put a bowl of soup down in front of her at dinnertime and she said, “I not eat dat soup, Mama.”
When she wants to be held she will say “Hold me me!”
When she is cold she will say “Hoo Hoo!”
When she was feeling under the weather and was running a fever she crawled up in my lap and said, “Hoh me me, Mama – I so Hoo Hoo!”
She also likes to say her ABC’s! (She will say “NO” or “Uh uh!” when she gets to a letter she does not want to say. She’s a hoot!)
I could listen to her ALL DAY LONG!!!!!!!!!!!
(In the event that you could also listen to her talk all day – Here’s a 5 minute clip of her talking about markers.
