Winning, Losing,...and Racing?

The other day, Grace could be heard lamenting the possibility of losing a coloring contest that she had entered, when her little brother gave her some sage advice. In a very compassionate and supportive voice, Jacob looked at her and said, "Grace, there's more to winning than racing."

Yes, it appears he is getting his life lessons from the movie, Cars. And he sometimes gets the words mixed around, but...such a sweet and wise little brother!

Don't laugh!

Yodel-Ay-Ee-Ooo!

A scene during playtime.

Grace, speaking to no one in particular:

"That's what I don't like about this cold!"

(Big sigh.)

"I can't yodel anymore!"

Guess what?

A scene from the dinner table.

Everyone eating and chattering at the table.

Abby: Guess whaaat?

We all turn towards Abby.

Abby: Mommy, guess what?

Me: Hmmm?

Abby: Mommy, de udder night, guess what?

Me: What?

Abby: De udder night at Nanny and Pa's, guess what?

Me: Yeah?

Abby (with a huge smile): De udder night at Nanny and Pa's, I was yaying down in the yiving room...and guess what?

Me (chuckling): Whaaat?

Abby: Mommy, I was yaying down in the yiving room and...Missy...guess what?

Me (trying not to laugh): Hmmm?

Abby (beginning to giggle): Missy...yicked my hair!

Everyone else at the table bursts out laughing and we all say in unison...you guessed it..."Guess what?"

*Missy is Nanny and Pa's dog.
