"A breakfast for you from me"
sung to tune of "A Message to You, Rudy" though I think she thinks that's the real lyric

That's the real lyric from now on as far as I'm concerned.

It wasn't a total shock as she repeatedly asks me to reenact Sleeping Beauty with her. "Ow! I pricked my finger on a spindle!"
I usually do a schticky variation on the story, where the kiss is proceeded by me trying other methods of waking her up, such as tickling and doing a song-and-dance routine.

Henry, who knows and can write the alphabet but still has a little trouble attributing a first letter to a word or name, had this convo with me the other day (while he was pooping, no less)
Hank: 'What do you start with?'Me: 'I start with a 'K' because my name is Kate.Me: 'What do you start with?'Hank:(incredulous)'You KNOW what I start with! I start with an 'H'. Remember H-E-N-R-Y!!'Me: 'Oh, yeah. I remember now. How did you get that name?'Hank: 'Oh, Mama. You know!'Me: 'Remind me again?'Hank: 'Well they told you when I was a baby. When you adopted me'Me: 'I adopted you?'Hank: *SIGH* 'Yes, from the doctor. Remember?'Me: 'Oh so the Doctor named you Henry?'Hank: 'No!'Me: 'Then how did you get that name?'Hank: 'The doctor told you when you adopted me'Me: ' So your name was already Henry before the doctor had you?'Hank: *SIGH* 'Yes!'Me: 'So did someone else give you that name or were you born with it?'Hank: 'Look, Mama. The doctor got all the baby Henrys in the whole world and then he adopted them to Mommies and Daddies'Me: 'He had ALL the baby Henrys in the whole wide world???? How did we pick you out of all those Henrys?'Hank: *SIGH* 'The doctor decided. OKAY?'Me: 'Ooookay'

She's very verbal. VERY verbal. And requires us to be too--almost every second thing she says is "Make it talk!", holding out a toy/bit of food/piece of furniture/small animal/rock/remote control/etcetc

While playing campout.HL: Are you afraid of the dark?A: No. I HUNT night reindeer in the dark.HL: Oh yeah? How do you hunt night reindeer? With a gun or a bow-and-arrow?A: With a bone arrow. You take em back to the camp, throw em on the fire, mush em up into a blanklet, then you chop the head off so you don't have a head on your blanklet.― how's life, Saturday, December 13, 2014 5:08 PM (7 months ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

A (holding up a plastic Halloween Grim Reaper scythe): I'm going to go deer hunting. HL: Uh, I've heard of people going deer hunting with shotguns, or rifles, or bows and arrows, but with a scythe? What are you going to do - chop their heads off?A: I'm going to chop a big hole in their backs and that's how you go deer hunting with a scythe.
