Walking Animals that Move



Chris and I took the girls to Marine World or rather Discovery Kingdom a few weeks ago.


Here's a conversation I had with Ellinor.


jodie, "Ell, what would you like to do now?"

ell, "I want to see the walking animals that move."

jodie, "oh, like the tigers or giraffe?"

ell, "No, remember the walking animals that move."

jodie, "oh, you want to ride the caurosel?"

ell, "Nooo, the WALKING ANIMALS THAT MOVE."

jodie, "let me call dad and see if he knows where they are."

jodie, "Hi Chris, do you have any idea what the 'walking animals that move' are? No? Okay call me back if anything comes to mind."

jodie, "do you want to see the zoo animals...like the elephants?"

ell, "No, the walking animals that move."

jodie, "what color are they?"

ell, "The walking animals that move."

jodie, "are they furry?"

ell, "The walking animals that move."

jodie, "Let's walk around and see if we can find them."

From around the bend walks Bugs Bunny.
ell, "see, mom, that's one of the walking animals that can move."
jodie, "oh, yeah.....(BIG sigh of relief)"

That's always such a relief to figure out what your child is trying to tell you! We want to have Ellie over.
