Each night during tuck-in, my children are entitled to two songs. The first song is their choice. Either they select something for me to sing or they get to make up a song themselves. The second song is always mine to choose.
Well tonight was "K Day" which meant Miss K got tucked in first but Miss M was there to help. Miss K decided that she wanted to make up a Princess song and proudly claimed "I'm going to sing about Princess K and Princess M... (rolling her eyes and cocking her head like she's thinking) and love... and cheddar."
Well, we do eat a lot of cheese. And she was making up the song on the fly. Hooray for imagination. (I guess.)
Somewhat befuddled, I repeated. "Love and cheddar?"
Miss K nodded and said "Uh huh."
Miss M chimed in. "Each other. Love each other."
"Ohhh. Love each other! That sounds like a great song."
...and it was. Thank goodness for 5 year old translators.

heehee. sisters. i love mine. yours are lucky girlies.
LOL, I would love to have a 5 year translator - I still don't understand a lot of what my 3 year old says!
I agree. I can't understand a lot of what my two year old says either. It's always a guessing game.
LMAO that's like me spending almost 3 months thinking my 4 yr old grandson was talking about some French pirate named Pirate Que Bien. At Halloween I figured it out when he pointed to a costume he wanted... Pirates of the Caribbean.
well, everyone loves a good sharp cheddar now and again
So cute when they say the wrong thing :)
LOL That was a great giggle. How cute is that. Cheddar!
We eat a lot of cheese too, but I would've thought it was strange if one of my kids was singing about it (though mine would be known to do it too).
How cute is that!
