Huh?
Avery has been repeatedly expressing this desire....
"Momma, letsee go todora!"
I must admit that I was quite confused by this request....
Yes, she enjoys watching
Dora the Explorer....
And yes, she is wearing a
Dora dress....(a hand-me-down from Shea)
However, this comment of "going to Dora" came at the most random times.....(at least that is what I initially thought...)
She would say "letsse go todora" while we were riding in the car picking up Shea from pre-school....
She would say "letsse go todora" in the kitchen while I was preparing lunch.....
She would say 'letsse go todora" after church...
I would ask her if she wanted to watch
Dora on TV...
"No Momma!"
I would ask her if she wanted to play one or our
Dora games....
"No Momma!"
I would ask her if she wanted to sing the
Dora song....
"No Momma!"
Yikes!!!
We were both getting frustrated!!!!!
Finally, one day last week it all came together.....
I asked Avery if she wanted some ice cream. Of course, she said yes. (smart kid!)
When I went to the freezer, I realized that the ice cream that I thought was there....wasn't!
(I like to blame this on the 'big' kids...)
I told Avery that the ice cream was all gone....
She responded with....
Can ya guess???
"Letsee go todora!"
Huh?????
OH!!!
I understood what she was saying!! (Insert Angels singing.... "Hallelujah!!")
"Let's go to the store!"
Avery was very pleased that I finally knew what she was saying.....
So, naturally....
We went
to the store....
And, bought some ice cream!
And all was right with the world....
At least, Avery's world!!!
