Dorothy was acting stressed, and she told me, "I almost said the Dd word." "Damn?" I asked her, sort of surprised. "No," she answered, and then whispered, "die....apparently there are two Dd words."
I was describing a toy to Dorothy, and she said that it sounded too young for her. When I came up with the brand name, she said, "Wait! I do want one of those! You didn't tell me it was electronical!"
For Dorothy's half-birthday, I gave her a nice toy that I picked-up on super-clearance. She was gobsmacked. "Mama, you should have saved it for my real birthday," she said.
In the tub: "My knees are so dirty that the dirt is dirty. That's a common saying for some reason."
Dorothy's catchphrase lately is "clearly," and she says it with great emphasis, as in, "The bad guy is cl-eeeear-ly wearing a disguise," or "Cl-eeeear-ly, I wanted a cupcake."
