I can be her party trick
DH was so pleased. He said to me, “Watch this. Hey, Ariana, what does Mommy say?”
DD appeared smiling, “Ariana tout nu! Get dressed my flying baby, so we can go en dehors. Allons-y!”
DH looked at me smugly. “She’s pretty good isn’t she?”
I said, “Yeah, I can be her party trick in fifteen years. It smacks of me at GOP functions and someone getting bored and saying, ‘Hey Christine, do the Grandma voice.’ I had no idea I sound that silly.”
DH said, “Oh, you’re not that silly. But that is exactly what you say.”
Terrific. Don’t ask her what I say in traffic.
