A 'normal' conversation with Ember...

This morning, on our way to Toddlers, we said hello to Erika, who works in my building. This resulted in the following conversation!

Em: Who’s that?

Me: That’s Erika.

Em: That’s your friend?

Me: Yes.

Em: Ekka go to your work?

Me: Yes, she works in the same building.

Em: You see her?

Me: Well, yes, I saw her just then.

(pause)

Em: I see Rumour [or possibly Ruma?]

Me: You see who?

Em: Rumour. I see Rumour Mummy.

Me: Rumour?

Em: Yes. Rumour.

Me: Oh, you know Bruce Willis’ daughter do you?

Em: Yes, I do.   She got my granny’s dawdles [or something like that]

Me: Your granny’s dawdles?

Em: Yes, she does.

Me: What’s that?

Em: Ummm (pause, finger on cheek in classic ‘I’m thinking’ pose) Hmmm, let me think about it. (pause) Oh, I know what it is.  We got to go to Daddy’s tickle party!
