It's late in the evening as we are driving back home. The sun is setting.
Me: It's quiet back there, are you guys awake?
No answer
Me: Hey, are you asleep Edee?
Edee: Yeah! (giggle giggle)
Me: Oh, you are asleep, huh? Chicken? Are you asleep too?
Chicken: Yeah!! (giggle giggle giggle)
Me: Oh silly kids. You are asleep or awake?
Edee: Asleep!! (giggle giggle)
Chicken: Yeah, wake!
Silly kids. And I can't believe my little boy is speaking in sentences. This can't be happening!
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....
