Freddy:
Box trucks
‘Mommy the box truck drove by, it didn’t bring us any boxes!’ (box truck = UPS)
Elephants
Mommy a lot of elephants won’t fit in our house. Maybe one will fit in the backyard. We could have 1 baby elephant and I will feed it apples and peanuts! (I played along and suggested the elephant could spray him with water from it’s trunk) Mommy please can we have an elephant and a big bucket of water so he can spray me!
“yes but how will you pick up the poop? “
I’ll use the poop scooper!
“not a shovel?”
No you can use the shovel!
Stephen
This is my play structure and I can do whatever I want to! (this in response to me telling him to get off the top!)
I didn’t realize that 5 year olds had so much attitude!
