Chicken, however, seems to realize that Edee might be one step ahead of him in this department while talking with adults, and gets a little jealous of the attention she gets. He tends to interrupt when he sees this happening, wanting to be a part of the conversation. It actually has been happening quite a bit lately. Here's just one example.
Friend: Are you in school, Edee?
Edee: No, I not in school yet, I'm dust four, but I went to a little preschool, but it's over now.
Me: Yeah it was called Joy School, we did--
Chicken: (interruping): BUT, but, but......but......yumtimes dere are dinosaurs.....an an an.....yumtimes we see cala-piters (caterpillars).....and....an.....hmm.
Me: Yep, you like caterpillars a lot, huh Chicken? Anyways, so a bunch of us moms trade off teaching Joy Sch---
Chicken: But but but.... yumtimes....yumtimes dere are.....um....yumtimes dere are....blah blah plah buh buh doo doos!!! Ha ha ha!
At this point you can tell he has no idea what to say, so he just starts making funny noises and faces and wiggles his hands around like he's putting on a little show. He seems to think that he's so irresistible that everyone else will think it's amazing. It ends up working out for him.
