The Sunday Funnies
Mom returns with milk to the deck where Dorothy is eating a snack.**
Dorothy: I want a glass.**
Mom: A cup will work just fine.**
Dorothy: You said, "Do you want A GLASS of milk?"!
Dorothy: Do you want to play Gjeorrhghhh?**
Mom: Say that again?**
Dorothy: Do you want to play Gjeorrhghhh?**
Mom: I don't understand your word. Tell me about the game so I can figure out what you're talking about.**
Dorothy: I am saying the right word.
Talking to her baby doll:**
Dorothy: Do you want a pretend candy heart, Baby?
Mom: What happened here? I see a mess.**
Dorothy: I poured the water on the paper. Water is similar to paint.
Dorothy is entering her "why" stage. This is especially challenging for Mom when reading Dr. Seuss books.
