BAILEY SAYS...

Bailey is four and has been expanding her vocabulary lately. She says a lot of interesting things that shock me. I laugh about it and later when I go to write it down it has left my mind. So I am trying to keep track of a few things that make me laugh.

1. The other day Bailey asked me if I struggle. I gave her a perplexed look and then she asked what struggle means. Jared told her and as he was telling her, I tuned my ears into the baseball game that her dad was watching and realized they were using that word while they were talking about a batter who was struggling. I guess a lesson from that...be careful what you watch.

2. Today I was helping Bailey get dressed for gymnastics. She wanted to wear a leotard that didn't fit her anymore. I pulled out a plain black one for her to wear and she said, "No way! That doesn't have any STYLE...." I'm not sure where she gets that from.

3. She also asked me today what the word mate meant. Not sure where she heard that one. I told her people from Australia call each other mates when they are referring to their friends. She then ran around the house calling all her sisters mate. She cracks me up.

4. Yesterday her friend gave her a My Little Pony Skywish. She carries it around telling the pony her wishes. Today, she kept telling her pony she wishes that her mom and dad would be nice to her. I asked her how we are mean and she said we put her in timeout and we don't get her a snow cone every day. Now that's mean!

My older kids would say different stuff for sure. What is WV? I'm not very up on abbreviations. Hope school is going well.
