Emil-isms, 3 Years + 3 Months

DSC_0012

Emil is the funniest little guy. I constantly hear from his teachers how expressive he is, especially when it comes to his feelings. Lately, he has been singing interesting versions of Christmas songs pretty much constantly throughout the day. It takes much restraint to keep from laughing out loud (he does not appreciate being laughed at — who does?).

Emil: A snowflake just be mad at me. So I be sad. Then I be strustrated (frustrated).

(To me in the car on the way to school): You know, Mama, you grow smaller and smaller until you are a baby. Then I be big and take care of you. I be your papa and I drive this car! 

(Also in the car, after I pointed out the pretty sunrise): I did dat with my paint-bwush! I fwew up yike Superman and painted it for you!

The things I will miss most about Emil at this age are his truly passionate hugs and kisses, his constantly telling every one of us how much he loves us, and the costumes. Always with the costumes.

We sure do love you, Emil.

  1. One of the things I miss as my girls grow up is the way they start to “correctly” pronounce things. I don’t think I even realize it until it’s gone. When one day F says “lemonade” instead of “lemo-lade”.

    All those words are fading. I’m clinging to the last ones, even using her own pronunciation for the words so maybe they linger longer. Like “crash can” instead of “trash can”, and “frusserated.” I like Emil’s “strustrated”. 🙂

  2. 3 years + 3 months – I can’t believe how fast time has flown! He really looks like a mix of his 2 big brothers 🙂 What a cutie! That last picture – AMAZING.
