Topics of Conversation

I struggle with ways to describe life with you as a 2.75 year old. We sure do laugh a lot! I think my best bet is to simply to let you speak for yourself. So here is a little snippet of a typical conversation. The dialogue is transcribed below the video.

Daddy: I'm going to give you donkey ears.
Jason: No!
D: And a tail.
J: No, don't do that.

D: Why not?

J: You're not gonna run into the fox, and you're not gonna give me donkey ears, and no tail.
D: Why don't you want donkey ears and a tail?
J: I don't like it. I don't like to be that.

D: You don't want to be a donkey?

J: I don't like to be a donkey, and then the...and then all the donkeys will be Jasons and I won't be Jason anymore! And I'm gonna be Jason! And I'm not gonna be a donkey!!

D: Do you like to be Jason?
(beep beep beep)

J: Is it ready? I think it is!

D: Is what...
J: Are they ready?

D: Are what ready?

J: Are the muffins ready?

D: I don't think those are the muffins. I think that was the fire alarm. Mommy was burning the muffins. Mommy's good at that. Say, "Mommy, you better not have killed my muffins."
J: Mommy, please don't kill my muffins. I want to eat 'em.

Mommy: Okay, I'll try not to kill the muffins.
D: Jason, can you sit down please? Jason, sit down please. One, two...

J: Three.

D: High five, good job. Down low. One more time. Ahhh...you're to slow!
J: giggles :)
