5th June 2007
Mu is starting to pronounce her letters with more clarity. She can now say 'y' as in yo-yo. As she's been saying lellow for a while, I've been encouraging her to say 'yellow' and she is very proud that she can now say it, and said to me "Auntie Dinnar, I can now say yellow plopperly."
22nd May 2007
Mu saw some birds with long legs (can't think what they really are) outside her pre-school and said "that looks just like a menu". Took me a while to figure out she meant an emu. What a crack-up! Oh, and we don't have emus that close to pre-school.
29th March 2007
I asked Soraya what she did before the school bell in the morning.
Oh, she said I just talk to the parents.
Oh, what about your friends? I said.
I have no friends.
Why not? I said.
Because I'm a sanguine.
20th March 2007
AD: Soraya, would you like some pink yogurt?
Soraya: No, thanks. I only eat Amway yogurt that we make ourself.
AD: Oh, really, you don't eat this. (Showing her with the spoon).
Soraya (quickly changing mind): Oh, I'll have one of those.
