Kid Stories

Not quite an interpreter....

Mikaela was singing a Spanish song in the car coming home from Graemma's recently.  Mike and I were trying to figure out the meaning of her simple song.  There's a line - La vaca lola - that puzzled us.  She could tell us about "the cow" or "la vaca", as well as other parts like tail and head, (and their Spanish counterparts) but when we asked about "lola" she replied, "I have no idea."  Then, continued on with her song.

Papa's Legacy

Mike's grandfather, Newt, or "Papa" as he was more affectionately known, must be smiling down on his great-grandson.  Mikaela is responsible for putting her dishes in the sink when she finishes eating.  Nicholas has been watching this chore for awhile and decided to take his own plate from the table upon completion of dinner one night.  However, since he was done, that must mean every one else was too and proceeded to clear Mikaela's plate, even though she was still trying to eat.  Papa's legacy lives on...
