Or, rather, why we never THINK they misunderstand, not that they actually understand in the first place. 😉 Here is how just about every conversation goes with one or both of the girls.
Me: Abby, look at that car!
Abby: Is that a car mommy?
Me: Yes, is it pretty?
Abby: It’s a pretty car mommy! Is that a car mommy? Emi, look at that car! Its a pretty car! Mommy? It’s a pretty car?
or, another example ….
Ron: Emily? Will you please put your milk down?
Emi: Put my milk down?
Ron: Yes, put your milk down?
Emi: I need to put my milk down. Abby? Did you put your milk down? Is your milk cold? Daddy? Is my milk cold? Do I need to put it down?
Repeat … any topic … any conversation. 🙂
