The kids have been obsessed with superheroes lately. Lily doesn’t seem to have a clear favorite but Cam is partial to Batman. Apparently, they’ve been watching a Superman show at day care and they are LOVING this. We hear all about the adventures of The Flash (Lily: He’s faster than a CHEETAH, you guys!) and Superman (Cam: Superman DOES fly!) and Hawk Girl (Lily: She has wings AND arms!)
Tonight, Cameron got a pair of new Batman pajamas as a prize for filling up his potty chart with stickers. NOTE: Things seem to be going well on the potty training front! YAY! He’s running around in as Batman and Lily donned her Vidia costume so she could pretend to be Hawk Girl.
“I wanna be Hawk Girl.”
“C’mon Hawk Girl, let’s fly!”
“Cameron, say ‘Hi, Hawk Girl! Wanna fly?’”
“Hey, Hawk Girl! Wanna fly”
“Hawk Girl, I’ll rescue you!”
“I’m Hawk Girl!”
“Look at me as Hawk Girl!”
“Try to catch Hawk Girl!”
“Hawk Girl doesn’t do that!”
“What are you doing Hawk Girl?”
“Hawk Girl, don’t do that!”
All simple chatter from a couple of preschoolers, right? Yeah…but neither of the kids can really nail the ‘k’ sound at the end of Hawk so it sounds like they’re saying HOT girl. The phrases above take a slightly different meaning if you replace Hawk with Hot. Thought I doubt any guy has ever uttered the phrase, “Hot girl, don’t do that!”
