The worstest

Eddie and Vincent were both sitting on my lap when Eddie announced "Vincent is the worstest baby ever!"

"What did he do?" I asked. "Did he pull on your ear?"

"Yeah," said Eddie. "And it was all slobbery!"

I guess Eddie got his first wet willy.

Dogs and cats

Eddie stood grimly at the playground listening to a dog bark. Then he asked if we could go to a cat shop, get a cat, and take it home with us.

Money

Eddie got down our piggy bank and took out some coins to put into a coin purse he has.  He did this for a while, then closed up the piggy bank and put it away. Then he approached Papa with an idea.

"Papa, I will use the coins for money and I will pay my money for toys. Lots and lots of toys—all the toys."

I said, "That's a good idea. But the problem is, that's not your money. It's Mama and Papa's money!"

Eddie rejoined "It's the family's money."

I assented to this.

He said "So it's my money too!"
