Oh noodles.

Oh noodles.
"Edee" and "Chicken" are nicknames for my two little rascals. The names originated from how my daughter would pronounce both her own and little brother's name when she first started talking. They've stuck. Chicken may live to regret that someday....

Colored Popcorn

We are driving to church one Sunday morning

Edee:  Yooooook!!!  I see popcorn popping on da apicot teee!!
Me:  Wow, you're right!  Blossoms are coming out on the trees.  It's finally starting to look like spring. Look there's some white ones.
Edee:  Yeah I yike white! I see pink ones!  Pink is my wave-rit (favorite).
Daddy:  Yeah you really love pink.
Edee:  Yeah I love pink ones, an puh-pull ones, an bue one, an red ones....but I don't yike da other ones
Me (to Daddy):  She's referring to all the colors the remain nameless to her because she doesn't like them. 
Daddy:  Look, the grass is starting to turn green, isn't that nice?
Edee:  No....i don yike geen tings.  Just bue...and pink...an puh-pull...an red....an white
Daddy:  White?  You like white over green?
Edee:  I yike white. Not green
Daddy:  You like the snow better than green grass?
Edee:  I Yooooove y-now (snow)!!   I don't yike geen, or to eat any-ting dat's green.  Geen tings are yucky. Oh, oh, except for geen beans.  I yike geen beans.  Yum.  Dose geen beans are good, I yike geen beans but I don yike to eat any odder geen tings.  I don yike geen.  Just pink...an red...an puh-pull an bue..... an, an white....
