Bunny love


We went to a program about bunnies at a local wildlife center.  Dorothy was a model student, sitting in her place in circle time while the teacher offered introductions, sang a song, and read a book.  After about ten minutes Dorothy quietly stood up and walked across the room to me, then whispered in my ear, "When will we see a bunny?"

The Sunday Funnies

Sarah:  My stomach doesn't feel good.**
Dorothy:  Maybe you ate too much food.**
Sarah:  Maybe.**
Dorothy:  Want to watch some Peppa Pig to make yourself feel better?

Idina Menzel was on t.v., and I explained to Dorothy that she was the voice of Elsa in Frozen.  After a little time passed, Dorothy said, "They keep calling her Idina, but actually her name is Elsa."

Sarah:  I can't remember which toothbrush is mine and which one is your dad's.**
Dorothy:  You have two choices:  blue or green.

Sarah:  I'll get you a glass of milk.**
Dorothy:  No, a plastic.

Blowing bubbles:**
Sarah:  Look!  I made Glinda the Good Witch.**
Dorothy:  Now make Dorothy Kansas.**

I spray-painted something, explaining to Dorothy that I was bored with the color.  She looked around for something else to spray paint.**
Dorothy:  "Let's do your car."**
Sarah:  "We can't spray paint my car."**
Dorothy:  "But I'm getting bored with the color."

The Sunday Funnies

Dorothy:  Mama, I yawned.  Will you rub my head and sing a song so I can rest?**
Sarah:  I'm tired, too.  I'll just hum.**
Dorothy:  No, I don't need you to hum.

Dorothy:  I want some of your paint.**
Sarah:  You have your own paint.**
Dorothy:  I want some of your paint.**
Sarah:  Please find something else to use.  I just read to you for an hour.  Now I need some time to myself.**
Dorothy:  I want some of your time.

Dad:  Good night!**
Dorothy:  Good night.  Don't let...the...bugs...eat you!

Sarah refilled the liquid hand soap dispenser.  Dorothy pressed the top, soap came out, and she said, "Hey, this has new batteries!"

Offering Dorothy a large ricecake:**
Sarah:  Do you want the whole thing, or half, like a moon?**
Dorothy:  [Long thinking pause]...I want a circle moon.
