Name game
December 20th, 2007
“I love my pet turtle,” Annalie announced while cuddling a blue plastic sea turtle.
“Oh, is that your pet turtle?” I asked, only half-paying attention.
“Yeah. His name is Cocoa.” That got the other half of my attention, and surprised a laugh out of me.
“That’s a great name for a turtle!”
“Yeah, it’s like hot cocoa! Except you don’t drink him.”

Hee!
She’s a smart one, that Annalie :)
That is great! I love how kids minds work … too cute!
This is so cute! A non-drinkable pet turtle!
There is nothing more special than the words of a child.
Now that is cute!!!
Sometimes I only half read words and think I read them….I thought the post below this one was ‘no more welding’…..and just couldn’t find the connection to the wedding part, ha, ha, I am such a smuck!
This is too cute! My oldest and I have similar dialogs all the time. Preschoolers keep life interesting, don’t they?!
Oh, and he has a turtle tub toy that he tries to drink out of all. the. time. Your post reminded me of that! If find myself saying, “Quit drinking bath water! Yucky!” And his reply is, “But it’s like a cup so I must drink!” **sigh**
Much, MUCH more interesting than Franklin!
