1.) Interview a child. To fully appreciate this interview you need to know a few things about Miss T. She is 4 years old, she has a great imagination, and an imaginary friend called Derek (thanks alot Barbie movies) she still has some trouble with certain pronunciations eg instead of saying frog, friend and funny, she says sog, send and sunny (and sucking hell instead of fucking hell). Don't get me started on that one.
She also says wuge and wappy instead of huge and happy. And wude and weally instead of rude and really. And I just love this about her. I will write as she speaks, so you may need to translate.
Me: hey you have a scratch on your hand
Miss T: yep, I did it on the concwete bwock
Me: how did that happen?
Miss T: Dewick pushed me
Me: why did he push you?
Miss T: cos he was being meanie to me
Miss T: but I went to the hostibul and the doctor fixed it for me
Me: well that's good. Did you cry?
Miss T: no, yes I cwied a bit, but you can't cwy because the doctor will put you in the dungeon
Me: why would he put you in the dungeon?
Miss T: if you cwy he will. We don't have a dungeon but
Me: where did you see a dungeon?
Miss T: umm, on Spy Kids, or maybe Sharkboy and Wavagirl
Miss T: Dewick went to the dungeon, but Dewick is there now
Me: where?
Miss T: (pointing across the room) there he is
Me: (actually looking for Derek) Oh, what's he doing?
Miss T: he's having a cuppa tea. But he's not doing baway (ballet)
Me: why isn't he doing ballet?
Miss T: cos boys don't do baway
Me: there was a boy at ballet yesterday
Miss T: (thinking) oh yeah, there was a boy there
Miss T: but he didn't have a dwess on
Me: no, but boys can do ballet as well as girls. What else do boys like?
Miss T: boys like football.
And on and on it went. I love my daughter to bits....

I actually understood every word. LOL she sounds like a great kid.
Hey, the button still would not go on my blog and then when I clicked on the box where the button was supposed to be, it said "The action you were trying to perform has failed." Sounds like there may be something wrong with the html? I don't know.
I like Wordpress because it just looks neater and crisp. I didn't want to pay to have someone update my blog and blogger didn't have a lot of options for layouts. The only thing I don't like about wordpress is that they don't offer the Followers widget yet. Other than that, I really like it.
Your daughter is adorable! Tea party conversations can be so much fun!
oh how sweet she sounds adoreable i caint wait for my daughter to carry on a conversation with me i am so excited would love to have you follow my blog please visit again
How cute. My daughters both spoke like that, my 5 yr old is in speech and my 3 year old still is learning some from her sister and the rest will wait till she gets in school.
My favorites were peepa for pizza and hobbible.
If Derek ever gets out of the dungeon, can he come here? I'd love an imaginary friend!
Oh... toooo cute for words...
Weally!!!
That is sooo fricken cute.
my kids say hobsitable and napi-an...sometimes i just make them say the word and they get mad but oh well. You have a new follower!
Oh if only children's books were written like this! I love it. Hearing the words and ideas spoken in your child's voice is precious. Thank you for sharing :)
So cute! My son is almost 2 and he says "apple" instead of "Bible" which doesn't really sound like apple anyway. He says "mow" instead of "more" and "caws" instead of "cars." I love it, too.
She sound so precious! I can't wait for the days of imaginary friends, right now the oldest's best friend in the world is his "bankie"....and the youngest's best friend....Mommy!
What a cutie! At least she didn't leave poor Derek locked in a dungeon for tea.
awwww that's adorable. And thanks for stopping by my blog! : )
