One word conversations

One thing which is providing me with great entertainment amidst the less entertaining parts of this life of mine are the conversations with Bean. It is amazing how, even with a limited vocabulary, they can get their point across (or not as the case may be).

For example, today I had given her some cheese and biscuits to snack on as she hadn't eaten much lunch and wanted to watch 'Jog on' and for those not in the know - that means she wanted to watch the Clamber Club DVD with Jog the Frog. So, I had said that she could watch it once she had finished her food.

The next thing, she says:

"Empy" showing me her empty bowl

I then hear rustles as the she opens and closes the cupboard door.

Me: "What are you doing?"
Bean: " cupboard"
Me: "What did you put in the cupboard?"
Bean: " Bowl"
Me: " And your food?"
Bean: " In cupboard, Finish, Jog on"

So, of course, what could I do but giggle, and put Jog on?

Ah the joys of simplicity! (Maybe I should take a lesson from that exchange...)

It is precious. I realised last weekend that I need to start writing down the cute things Lukas and Leane is saying...or else it will be lost for ever.
