Rhona says Mamamamamamama, but it doesn't mean Mama, it means I want something. Or I'm having fun blowing big old bubbles and making a noise while I do it. Maybe more like Muhmuhmuhmuhmuh.
A couple of days ago, Dad said "aaaooooga" and Rhona said it right back, very carefully, with an extremely long oooooo and a prim and hesitant -ga after a tiny pause at the end. Then they each said it again. The day before that, I was turning the pages of a book and said "whee!"and she echoed "whee!" with precisely the same intonation.
She might have said "up" once or twice. And she echoed Mab a few times, after she called "Faelan!" loudly up the stairs. Only Rhona left out the consonants, so it was a loud call of "Ae-an!"

Mab the show princess
Mab is singing songs. Lyrcs include:
Seven morning glories rise
Before the baby is born
To the loving of the able best
She also sings about lovely queebs, cigabets, and falvation. Yes. Queebs, from context, are queens.
She informed me that she was going to do a show. She was a princess. The other princess had died. How? An earwing went in her ear, very far. It hurt. So then it killed her? No, she just died from it. Ah. (Earwing = earwig. Ew.)
--------
Joel and I were kissing this morning and she interrupted us to say "you guys, that looks very ...pleasant." Where have we gone wrong?

Fruits of the Spirit
For the past several months, Jeremy Ezell has been going into the Sunday School classes and singing songs with them. One of their favorites is the Fruits of the Spirit song, which features edible fruits in the verses. This morning, they did elderberry (Faelan's request), watermelon, and orange.
This afternoon, Mab drew a picture and showed it to Joel. He asked her what it was, and she said "It says 'Happy Birthday from love, joy, peace, patience, self-control, and Uncle Jeremy."

I could not bring myself to select the best photos of kids playing in the autumn leaves, so there are too many. There ARE other pictures afterwards.

Rejection!
Mab's ire was roused, and she declared: "You are super sad, and I don't like you, and you are no such thing as Mommy!" Burn!

Where did she get that?
Mab: I'm a bad grasshopper.
Grown-up: Really? What did you do?
Mab: I kill a man.
Grown-up: .... ... ... huh. That's awful.
