Earlier today, Emma and I were horsing around in the bedroom when we heard Jay in the kitchen. We both listened to see where Jay was heading to, and then I told Emma to call Daddy.
Emma: "Jaaaay! Jaaaay!"
[Pause]
Emma: "Come heeeere!"
Me: "Call Daddy again."
Emma: "Jaaay! Come heeere! You Dumbo!"

During dinner...
Me: "Emma go ask Grandma if she wants some fries."
Emma still sitting on her chair hollered -
"Grandmaaaaa! It's dinner time!!!"
-------------------------------------------------------------
A few days ago, I saw my friend Tyrone on Yahoo Messenger. He had his webcam on, so he invited me to view his webcam. Emma was standing beside me when I accepted the invite.
Tyrone's webcam window popped open...
Emma: "Shrek!"
Ignoring Emma, I went on chatting with Ty, and then Emma said,
"Mommy, Shrek!"
Me: "Shrek? Huh?"
Emma: "Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!" (pointing at the webcam screen)
It wasn't until later that I realized that Emma was actually pointing at the "Shrek" ad below the screen and not calling Tyrone - Shrek.
-------------------------------------------------
Speaking of Shrek -
Emma: (pointing at her daddy) "You Shrek!"
Then pointing at herself, "Donkey!"
Me: "And who am I?"
Emma: "Princess Fiona."
While preparing dinner, I started singing that little ditty in one of the Shrek movies.
Me: [singing...or the equivalent of it] "Coz you gotta have frieeennnd..."
Emma: "Stop singing!"

Haha! I knew it couldn't be me she was referring to.
Most kids see me as Donkey.
Especially when I go to your house, staying up late, swapping manly stories, and in the morning, I'm making waffles!
