Kidisms
At the evening meal ~
Willem: Pooooor Mama (Mom laughs),
Willem: Pooooor Brynlee (Brynlee laughs),
Willem: Pooooor Meikiina
Mei: Pooooor Willem
Willem (with finger pointing): Don't tick-a me off!!
(3/16/13)
Willem points to picture of himself still at his orphanage in which he's dressed in yellow and says, "Qiang?" I answer him, "Yes, that's Huai Qiang." He says, "Not White Qiang...yellow Qiang!" (March 2013)
I was looking at patterns for crocheted cardigans with Brynlee and she was telling me which ones she liked. I clicked on one that happened to be a swimsuit cover. In the same pattern was a bikini clad model. Willem points to that model and says, "Wow! I like-a dat one!" (March 2013)
A Willemism or a Boyism? One morning there was water leaking out from under the freezer. After investigating it was found that the freezer (who's knob is right at 4 year old boy eye level) had been turned ALL the way off! Hmmm... I wonder who did that! (4/6/13)
Then not a week later, Willem just happens to see a bright red crank knob right at a 4 year old boy eye level in our utility room. Well, that knob can't just be there for nothing. Oh, no. Knobs are meant for turning, aren't they? Yes, he turned the gas off to the furnace. Luckily we happened to see him do that. (4/12/13)

And here's a random Brynleeism - I call Brynlee every morning before she goes to school, and one morning she very excitedly told me that she knows what she wants to be when she grows up.
Me: What do you want to be when you grow up?
She: Guess!
Me: Hmmm...(several guesses)
She: No, no ... It starts with an 'S'.
Me: Several more guesses.
She: Several more no's
Me: Well, I just don't know.
She: A SPY!
Me: A spy. Well, that would be interesting. It could be a little dangerous tho.
She: Yes, it could be. Like, when I'd be spying on someone in a hotel that has really many floors. I'd have to be walking on those ledges way up there and spying in their windows.
Me: Yes, that would be dangerous!
