His little seven year old sister responded instantly, "how high is the cliff?"
One is the great pretender, with an imagination like a kaleidoscope and sound effects rivaling any summer blockbuster. The other is the arguer and the question-asker. Every time. She gets me.
Little sister is a score keeper too and she merges words like nobody's business. She was recently in a play where she was the youngest cast member by three years with six pages of lines. Within two days, she had every single line completely "rememberized" and delivered her lines perfectly on the day of the performance.
She doesn't like to be "interabrupted" by anyone when she's working on an important project like building a fort in her room or making lemonade.
Her big brother often makes her mad and she complained once that he was "annoring" her. Confused by the word, I asked whether her brother was annoying or ignoring her and she responded simply, "both mom, that's what I said."
I think I was annoring her at that point.
