Top Ender Giggles - That isn't food!

Top Ender went to a party after school in the week. When we got home I made tea for Baby Boy, Daddy and I and let Top Ender play.

"When's dinner Mummy?" asked Top Ender expectantly
"You have had dinner!" I answered
Top Ender thought for a second face screwed up with concentration
"No I haven't!" she exclaimed
"Yes, at the Birthday party" I explained
"No, that was lunch as it was sandwiches and party food!"

Top Ender Giggles - Just a little change

Top Ender will finish in Reception this Friday. I can't believe that she is growing so fast and it makes me not want to blink or before I know it Baby Boy will be in school too.

She went to spend some time with her new Teacher in the week along with her other classmates. After school I asked her what it was like, where she sat, what she did and all the other questions that I was desperate for her to answer!

"There was one thing that upset me though Mummy" she pouted.
"What was that Top Ender?"
"Well, do you know that you don't play when you go to Year One?"
"Yes, I did know that"
"Well I am staying in Reception!"

Not knowing how to answer this I pulled a funny face and let the subject slide until Daddy was around and asked about the new Teacher visit

"Daddy there was this one thing that Top Ender wasn't happy about" I mentioned
"What was that Mummy?" asked Daddy
"Well Top Ender is upset that there is no play learning anymore"
"Oh" said Daddy
"I am staying in Reception Daddy!"
"Well, do you remember when you were a Toggler in Nursery?"
"Yes" she answered
"And you moved to be a Top Ender didn't you?"
"Yes"
"And you did work as a Top Ender didn't you?"
"Yes"
"And then you went to School didn't you?"
"Yes"
"And do more work but still some playing?"
"Yes!" she said impatiently
"Well this is just another little change, you won't notice it!"

Top Ender went quiet and I heard a few minutes later a little mutter

"Bet I will notice it"

Top Ender Giggles - A little direction

Whilst we were driving home Daddy and I weren't sure of which road to take so we decided to keep on the road we were on. A few seconds later I realised where we were and let Daddy know.

"I'll turn around in this side road" said Daddy
"I know where we are!" said Top Ender with natural excitement

As we had been on the exact same road only one week before we both assumed that she had seen something that had sparked a memory

"Where's that then Top Ender?" asked Daddy
"Lost!" she replied

"I'll give you lost!" muttered Daddy

Top Ender Giggles - I still dont get wht is is funny though

Whilst traveling home last night during a rain storm, Daddy saw a field of Deer and pointed them out to Top Ender who was traveling in the front with him.

"It looks like Rain deer!" Daddy said as Baby Boy and I started to giggle in the back.

Top Ender sat thinking for a moment before replying

"There are two ways of saying it isn't there?"
"Yes, Top Ender" said Daddy
"Because, you could be saying the Deer look like Reindeer, or you could be saying it looks like rain and saying dear because it is to a close friend...."
"That is exactly right Top Ender" said Daddy
"I still don't get why it is funny though" said a pan faced Top Ender

Top Ender Giggles - There is only one way home!

Whist we were driving in the car during the week the following occurred

"Mummy? Is that Grandad carrying a bin up the road?" asked Top Ender
"Yes, it appears to be Top Ender" I answered
"Why is he doing that?"
"Well how else could he get it home?"
"Good point Mummy, Good Point!"
