Mote Control
Coco asked me to get the “mote control” tonight. I wasn’t sure that’s what she had said at first so I asked her to repeat it. Sure enough: “mote control.” Mignon!
May You Please
Coco uses this expression constantly.
“May you please hold my backpack?”
“May you please get me a glass of milk?”
We corrected her this week, so like a lot of her other sweet expressions it will soon be a thing of the past.
I Love You Like Ice Cream
When Coco first said this to me, I thought, “what poetry, what a wordsmith this kid is.”
Today, I put on an episode of Frances for Coco to watch. Halfway through the program, I hear Frances utter the same words….and she even added what Coco does, “and I don’t even like ice cream!”
The Latest
“Muy-fecto!” This is said after Coco kisses her fingers. Lots of things have been “muy-fecto” in the last 24 hours.
The Latest Expression
Tonight I was feeling a bit dejected at dinner because Coco was being a bit uncooperative. She looked over at me and said, “Mommy, why are you looking like that? You’re breaking my heart.”
Later, at bedtime, I was lying down with her because she said she was lonely and needed someone to be in her room. I always fall for this and the moment I lie down, every time, Coco gets all rambunctious. Tonight she wanted to show me her Hello Kitty music box. It’s small and red and when you open the lid, music plays and Hello Kitty spins around. She reached over to her bedside table, opened it up and said, “Hello Kitty, you’re breaking my heart you’re so cute!”
Strawberries
Last night while eating strawberries, Coco leaned back in her chair and said, “ah, this is the life.”
