Rhea dialogues

The D Space

In the minivan on the way Corpus Christi, fiona's driving, i'm in the passenger seat next to her, and rhea is all the way back in the minivan.

Me: Rhea do you want to do some painting?
Rhea ( with a slight hint of panic) : What daddy? You saw some lightning??

Rhea looking at our wedding picture:
What's that mommy?
That's our wedding picture.
well i'm gonna get married to josh (who's been in her day care class more or less since they started).
Why Josh?
Cause girls can only marry boys.
Well does josh want to marry you?
Rhea (concerned): Well no..i haven't asked him yet....


Rhea seems to talk like an adult, and pronounces most words just like adults do..
Obviously for a while there when she was around 18 months to a year, we had to interpret the words. most were easy. For example gone are the days of the "itsy bitsy fider" instead of"spider" and "wuv" for love. Those were easy and there were others that she would point to for example "vaaaamp" for lamp, and "blublbublbulbub" for balloon.
The most challening one was bem-bruh.
bem-bruh?? we went to Corpus Christi.... or bem-bruh?? my classroom is yellow
huh?
Fiona finally figured out what bem-bruh meant . It took us a while - almost a month - but we finally figured out that bem-bruh is 'remember'

Those days are now gone of course but nevertheless if you listen closely she still has some gems...

May i have some dive coke please

You're opposed to do this (instead of "supposed")

Are you going to be using the bacuum cleaner?
