Some of my favorite family moments are when Kaelia gets really silly and makes the rest of us laugh. Just this past week, for example, I got out the shower to find my two girls cracking up on my bed. Taelyn was singing a song from preschool and trying to teach Kaelia the words, but she was stuck in silly mode and wanted to make us laugh. The scene went a little like this:
Taelyn: Harry, Harry, drive the fire truck. [Then she looked at Kaelia for her to repeat the words back.]
Kaelia: Harry, Harry, drive the bicycle.
Taelyn thought this was hysterical and kept trying to over and over again to teach Kaelia the correct words. Kaelia would respond with "drive the car," then "airplane," blanket," "cereal," etc. She of course knew the correct words all along, but just wanted to be silly. Finally, in the end, she said "fire truck" and we all cheered for her. Little funny moments like this happen at least once a week!
