The other day as we were putting on her tights the Nugget said the tights "would protect her feet". I didn't know she knew the word protect so I asked her where did she learn such a big word. Withougt hesitating she replied "Caillou". Who says TV isn't educational these days??

The Nugget and I were having a chat a couple of weeks ago about bugs. I don't want her to be afraid of bugs (healthy respect, maybe) so I take any chance I get to have her hold a worm, or a cricket, or whatever. She usually complies but is afraid of bees (because other kids she knows freak out when they see them). I was trying to reason with her while sitting on the steps of our deck.
Nugget: "I like ladybugs, spiders (but not webs), worms and crickets."
Me: "Yeah, and since you like all of those other bugs you can like bees".
Nugget: "No, YOU can like bees"
And that was that.
