I should know by now not to correct the grammar of a 5-year-old. Why? Because I had a conversation with Eli yesterday that went something like this.
Eli: Do you want to try those new waffle pancakes?
Me: Yes, I think they would be good.
Eli: Me and Georgia don’t want to try them.
Me: Georgia and I don’t want to try them.
Eli: *blink blink* But you just said you did.
Me: I do. I’m telling you that the proper way is not to say ‘Me and Georgia’ but rather ‘Georgia and I don’t want to try them.’
Eli: *getting really frustrated at this point* So, do you want to try them or not?!
Me: Yes!
Eli: Then why do you keep saying you don’t?!
Me: Never mind!
Eli walks off in a huff. Eric sits there laughing at me. And I am not amused.

LOL!
I found your blog through just browsing other blogs (kinda like a friend of a friend of a friend)....I've thoroughly enjoyed reading. :-)
Gotta love hearing a child's thought process. Hehe. I agree with the previous commenter about "Who's On First"
