we had another amazing conversation tonight with the now three year old. over the past few weeks she had let us know that she is now areil, the little mermaid. i am now king triton, silas is the clownfish, her best friend, and sherry is "the crab." until tonight it was just something she would say in the car, but tonight we went to the next level. i was standing by the kitchen table and here is how the conversation started:
b: uh, king triton?
l: what about king triton?
b: no, you say, "yes, ariel?"
l: oh i see, yes ariel?
b: i can't find my purse. can you help me, king triton?
l: sure, ariel, where did you have it?
b: it's in the car, king triton. can you change me, king triton?
l: sure ariel, you need to get your jammies, first.
b: oh, ok. i'll go get my jammies from the crab. (this put me over the top in laughter). uh, crab, can you change me and put on my jammies?
s: sure hon.
b: no, you say, "sure, ariel." uh, crab, can i have a snack?
s: sure, go get something to eat from daddy.
b: no, i'll go get something to eat from king triton. king triton? can i have a snack?
l: sure ariel.
b: thanks king triton. hey, is that clown fish asleep?
l: yes ariel, the clown fish went to bed.
i could go on. this went on for well over an hour. sherry and i were rolling.

she is a hoot!
Gosh, that is so funny. I would love to see her in action one of these days.
I wish I could see her like this. I haven't been around her when she's being just herself. She's such a cutie, and you're such a great dad. Love these last two posts!
I love ariel. She is wayyyy too cute! Wish we could see her and clownfish more often than we do!
Love her!!
