Penny and I bike to work/school most mornings and afternoons. We mainly sing songs, but sometimes she just talks a mile a minute. Here are some of the things she has told me:
Every morning we pass a few dozen geese on our bike path. "Mommy, the geese sure do poop A LOT. I think they want to sell their poop. Why would they poop so much? Because they want to make money, but no one wants to buy gooses poop....ha ha ha ha" This observation happens every morning.
Discussing the school 4th of July celebration: "We need to go to the store and buy lots of red white and blue stuff. I need to look fabulous!"
On the birds we see "Mommy, when do the baby chickadees become chickens?"
On my speed or lack of: "You're doing a great job. You can beat the guy up there. You need to go fast....mommmmm...why aren't you going fast? you have to pedal"
Never mind that she is riding a ride-along bike and only pedals about once every 5 minutes.
A movie discussion: "mommy, did you watch Wizard of Oz when you were a kid? Wow! You did? That's an old movie! Did Toto jump out of the basket and run home when you watched it when you were a kid?"
I know there are some others that I'm forgetting. I have to write them down more often.
