Gianna is four but sometimes she talks like she’s not. I don’t know why I even wonder when her older sisters were the same when they were her age. Just this morning, we had a conversation that went like this…
Me: Stay here. I’ll be back.
G: No. I’m scared.
Me: Scared? Why are you scared in your own house?
G: Because monsters and all those other stuff. (side note: I’m so proud of her — she has never said “stuffs” ever, not even by mistake! Image may be NSFW.

She’s been having bad dreams, and I was surprised, not by her answer, but by how she articulated it. Sometimes she bobs her head and raises her eyebrows — too much sass! Image may be NSFW.

But there are other times when she is just completely adorably, wonderfully four.

When King talked about his oldest friend who was coming over…
K: Tito Ryan has been my friend for a long time. We were together in Kinder….
G: Egg.

I recently taught Gianna the song that I sang to her sisters when they were babies. She now sings it as well.
G: You’re my itty bitty baby girl…Daddy’s pride, Mama’s pearl. Tiny treasure, so PATIS…

She mispronounces words and I enjoy hearing them!
“Are we going to the ates’ RECYCLE?”
“That’s BUNNY’S Bakedown.”
“I want to have my own STEPOCOPE.”
Recently she learned to say THree with a considerable amount of saliva at first. But it’s still funder, fumbs up, and Feeyodore. Image may be NSFW.

The other day, she said she was drawing a Sir and a Maam.
Me: Is mommy the maam? Do I look like her?
G: No.
Me: We’re different?
G: Yeah.
Me: Why? Why are we different?
G: Because you’re a human.
Me: Oh I’m a human. And she’s a?
G: A drawing.
