Ember and I were walking down to the new market this morning (well, I was walking and Ember was rolling in the buggy) when completely out of nowhere we had this conversation.
Em: Mummy. I doesn't like to chase flamingos.
Me: You don't like what?
Em: I don't like to chase flamingos.
Me: Oh. Ok...
Em: That's why flamingos are pink. ('That's why' usually means 'because')
Me: Ok
(Pause)
Me: So, why don't you like to chase flamingos?
Em: DON'T EVEN SAY THAT TO ME MUMMY!
Me: What? I don't understand. Why did you say you don't like to chase flamingos?
Em: NO MUMMY DON'T SAY THOSE WORDS AND THOSE THINGS TO ME!
I'm pretty sure she didn't have anything "herbal" for breakfast, but I won't swear to it after that conversation!
