Our little 4 year old princess visited us straight from school. She made us laugh so much when we were playing "I Spy". It was her turn so she starts:
"I spy with my little eye, something beginning with yer."
"Yacht", said Grandad referring to an ornament on the mantlepiece.
"No", she said.
"Yellow bananas", says I. (I know, a bit far fetched but I was struggling).
"No", she said.
We gave up after that. "Tell us, what begins with "yer"?"
UNIFORM, she cried!!!
Of course, silly us.

Smart girl ! Silly grandparents !
Enjoy that age, it's so precious
I used to love when mine played hide and seek by just covering their own face with their hands.
auntiegwen - It's wonderful isn't it. So precious. xxx
Priceless! And apropos Auntie G's remark, Charlie now plays 'peek-a-boo' by covering his ears!
I'm sure that Noodle feels very sorry for her poor 'elderly' grandparents - not being much good at I Spy! ;0)
The wee gem! No sides to them at that age. How lovely that you have her in your life and that she has you.
I can just picture her, in all her seriousness, and being right of course!
Surprised you didn't get that! LOL
The Dotterel - Welcome! That's so sweet!
Mean Mom - We're useless aren't we. Can't wait for the next time!xx
MOB - I agree, and keep counting my lucky stars. xx
T&C - She knew what she meant, so she was right. xxx
Maggie May - I know, what are we like? xx
They are gorgeous aren't they. Can just imagine her serious little face. And the joy of winning that round! I always think we should write these little gems down because apart from a very few, most get forgotten. A x
Definitely a gem! We've had a few of those phonetic I spys. Izzy won't allow clusters either, if it begins with 's' it has to be followed by a vowel, anything like 'st' or 'sp' begins with something different in her eyes!
How funny. We are getting the same sort of things from Grandson - I guess they are both doing sounds at school! It's like learning it all over again for me. M :-)
