Say What?

Tonight in the car we were talking about Julia's friends, Gilla and Ricky. Gilla and Ricky are siblings and they go all sorts of places with us. Usually it's just Gilla, but sometimes Ricky comes too. I know all sorts of things about Gilla...she's Julia's age, she has hair the color of Julia's and her favorite Disney Princess is Snow White, but I have never actually met her. Gilla and Ricky are Julia's imaginary friends. Sometimes I forget to let people know that they aren't actual people. Mind you, Gilla sounds an awful lot like Julia, but Ricky is a new addition in the past few months. I don't know where she came up with Ricky, but the girl has a good imagination. Tonight I asked her what Gilla's favorite TV show was and without missing a beat, Julia said "SpongeBob Wears Pants." Then she broke into the song, "SpongeBob Wears Pants." Christina, Meghan and I just couldn't keep from laughing, which made her yell it louder. Ahh, took me back to my days at WMU and Cassy's rendition of "Stroke Me, Stroke Me". Was it "Stone Cold Ugly?" Hmm - you'll have to comment on that one Cas.

Aren't those better words than "Stroke me, stroke me"? I think so. I still have problems with lyrics. Eric quizzes me all the time - "what are they saying?". Next time I think of a good one I'll be sure to let you know. Tell Julia that "SpongeBob wears pants" makes much more sense...and that really is what it sounds like!

Oh how similar our kids are. Ally had friends blenny and haney, no idea where those names came from and she used to go around singing Dora Dora Dora the exploder...The first time I heard her singing I think I made her repeat it like 10 times!
