Tonight after dinner for 5 minutes of fun Emma had Daddy go with her to Mommy's school. When asked what the name of her school is (to clarify the Mommy part) she said Toad Hill, which is in fact the name of her preschool. Needless to say she did not really enlighten us at all. :)

She took Steve to a vacant space on the dining room floor and said, "OK. This is where Mommy's school is at. Everybody sit down. Daddy, sit down. No, like this." She showed Steve how to sit, and I helped clarify by calling it criss-cross-applesauce. She kept muttering stuff and reminding Daddy to sit "like this" every time Steve lifted his knees off the floor. She didn't understand what Steve mean when he said, "Old people can't sit like this for too long."

"OK! Now it is time to get up." And then my memory is fuzzy for a minute or so because Emma moves and talks at lightning speed! Steve and Emma started moving and dancing and then running in place. And then...

Emma exclaimed, "OK! Let's run in place. Yeah, everybody run around. Run in place." And then she takes off jogging around the room and swinging her arms while shouting, "Let's run around in place! Run around in place everyone." She didn't notice that Daddy was running in place and therefore not moving. :)
