"Allie"isms

I have been meaning to start writing down the funny things my kids say. I have bought journals and note pads and placed them around the house for easy access--yet I still haven't written them down. So...I am going to start blogging "Allie"isms and "Izzie"isms, and pretty soon there will even be "Ollie"isms. So, today we start with and "Allie"ism. Alexandra received a loaded bucket of art supplies for Christmas. Really the Christmas present was that I let her use the fingerpaints and glitter glues and every other horribly messy art supply. She also received a dry erase board that she can practice letters and numbers with. We were at "D" and she needed my help. I showed her how to do one and then talked her through the next one, "Start at the top a line down, now back to the top and curve around....good job". The curve must have reminded her of the "C" she completed earlier...because Allie's exasperated reply to the letter "D" was, "What a waste of C's."
