Ashton-isms

Ashton has said some pretty funny things lately. Here are a few that I remembered to write down.

She came home from the park with Joseph tonight and told me that she talked to the "squitos" (mosquitoes). I asked her what she told them and she mumbled something. Hopefully she told them to go away and stop biting.

At the national night out activity we went to (post coming), she sat in the back of a pick up truck meant for emergency rescue. They had a wide space between the two front seats with a big console, just like my mom's truck. Ashton pointed to that area and said, "Molly's car seat." Molly is my mom's dog and Molly often sits on the console in their truck. She remembered that from Wisconsin.

After nap, Ashton will ask to go on a walk for Daddy. I have to tell her everyday that he is still at work. One day, she replied, "Daddy at a meeting on the phone." She was probably right.

We were driving one day and she randomly told me, "I want to be in the circus." I had no clue how she knew what a circus was. At dinner that night, I asked Joe to see if they had read about one in a bedtime story. He said no. I asked Ashton how she knew about a circus. Her response: "Daniel and Margaret." It dawned on me that several days earlier she had watched an episode of Daniel Tiger that includes them pretending to have a circus with baby Margaret. I asked her what she wants to do at a circus and she started dancing. I hope her aspirations change over the years!

Funny girl!
