Little Bug Speaks

Apr 03, 2011

One day Little Bug was playing in the living room after breakfast. I was in the kitchen cleaning up. I looked up to see Little Bug dancing away even though there was no music playing. I like to think that she was just dancing away to the happiness in her heart!

Little Bug kept going to the hall closet saying, “Ovals!!” I didn’t know what she was talking about. I tried to get her to come on back to the living room area of the house but she was insistent on wanting the “ovals”. I finally realized what she was talking about. Little Bug wanted the Easter basket full of plastic eggs that was on the floor in the hall closet! We got them out and I taught her that they are Easter eggs and that, yes, they are oval shaped!

Little Bug was doing something naughty at the dinner table one night. Dave was handling the situation but was having a hard time keeping a serious composure because let’s just face it…sometimes when Little Bug is being naughty is just downright funny. He eventually had to just lay his head down on the table to hide his laughter and regain his composure to finish disciplining Little Bug.

Little Bug said, “Daddy taking nap.”

Little Bug found a squashed blueberry on her plate, held it up to me and said, “Ewwww! Doss! (Gross!)”
