Mayson and I have very interesting conversations on the way to work. Today when I asked her if she wanted to take ballet classes she said, "No, I want to take princess lessons."
* I had to come back and edit this post because Mayson continues to be so funny and well-spoken. We got in the car after a trip to the grocery store yesterday. At the store, I had her push her own cart and tried to engage her in helping me find the items we needed. That lasted about a minute and a half before she ditched the cart and started roaming the aisles, touching everything. When we got back to the car, I said, "Thanks Mayson, you were a good helper." She responded with, "Yeah, more or less." It was spoken with just the right amount of sarcasm that hinted at--you and I both know that I wasn't helpful at all. Today, when I asked if she had a good day at Angies, she responded the same way, "More or less." Her sentences are pretty amazing. I always find it so incredible that at her age she is so good as using prepositions and pronouns and using compound sentences. She never switches "you, me, him, her" and will say something is behind or in front of another thing. There are some things that she doesn't say with proper English, but I LOVE those sayings. She always says, "That will feel me better," instead of "That will make me feel better."
