I don't want to get sick.


Scene: Driving home from playgroup.

Juliet: I really wanted to go outside with N.
Me: It's to cold to play outside and it is raining.
J: Oh. I really wanted to play outside with him.
Me: Juliet, it is so cold and rainy outside. It's not a good idea.
J: I really wanted to run through the sprinkler.
Me: No! You would get so wet and cold.
J: But I have my raincoat on.
Me: It doesn't work like that. You can't get wet outside you will get so cold.
J: But I have my raincoat on...
Me: Juliet if you go outside and get wet and cold you could get sick.
J:......................... Is it my bath night?
Me: Yes....
J: Well I guess I can't take a bath tonight then... I get wet and get cold in the bath and I don't want to get sick.

This is out of Juliet's work book.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Scene: We were working on "what is missing". Before we got started I explained missing to her. She seem to get it so we went on to the book.... and then this happened.

Me: Juliet what is missing from one of the lions?

J: (takes a very long look) Umm.............umm...... uuuuummmmmmmmm...

Me: Is one of the Lions different from the others?

J: that one! (She points to number 4)

Me: Really? How is it different?

J: It is missing a tube?

Me: (in my head WHAT THE HELL?) Umm... no I don't think so. Look at all the lions. Which one is different

J: um........ uuuuummmmm............

Me: okay so lets do this. (then we go through each body part and try and find one that is missing something and the very last part I say is the tail) Do they all have tails?

J: Yes.

Me: Really? Even this one (pointing to number 3)

J: Yes.

Me: Really?

J: Yes. It's behind him (and then looks at me like I am an idiot)

Me: no Juliet it isn't behind him

J: oh.... (still thinks I am stupid)

Me: Juliet so what Lion is different?

J: That one (she points to number three THANK THE GODS!!!)

Me: YES!!!! What is he missing?!

J: His snorkel...

Me: What the hell are you talking about?

J: His snorkel. He is missing a snorkel!

Me: HIS TAIL!!!!! HE IS MISSING HIS TAIL!!!!!!!

J: Oh (and then does her oh giggle thing that she does)
