Top Ten Cute Things that Ladybug Says

1. "Wake up! Wake up!" which sounds like way-cup, way-cup.

2. To her, a flamingo is a "pink chicken." Don't try to convince her otherwise!

3. Thanks to the inspiration of Mary, we have taught Ladybug that she has to wait for the 6 on the clock before we can get out of bed. She caught on very quickly and will now look at the clock to "find red 6." (Yes, I know that sounds early to a lot of you, but it's much better than 5:00!!!) (And yes, we quickly taught her the position the 6 has to be in before we can get up - "righ' here," said in the cutest Southern drawl. Although neither Hubby nor I have a Southern drawl, so we don't know where she got that!)

4. Ladybug loves all the yard decorations in our neighborhood. It started with Halloween, then someone had a turkey on their porch for Thanksgiving, now there are snowmen and Christmas trees. If the wind has blown something over, she'll say, "Snowman sit up! Sit up!"

5. In the true-to-toddler-form of curiosity, she often says, "Wha dat?"

6. Recently singing "Away in a Manger," Ladybug sang, "go sleep, Je-sa, no wake, Je-sa, no cry, Je-sa."

7. "Get u', Mama." or "U', Mama." Which means get up, Mama or (pick me) up, Mama. And with her being sick last week and now three nights in a row of bad dreams, she's been saying those a lot.

8. "Do again." Especially when something is funny or entertaining. Do it again.

9. "Chri' tree 'ight." She absolutely LOVES the Christmas tree lights.

10. And we've been having conversations about God too.
