Platform Gap

Sophie pointed at her shirt during dinner today, and asked, "What is this?".

I answered, "G-A-P. GAP".

She mumbled under her breath, "...platform gap...".

Eyebrows raised, I asked, "And where would you find this platform gap?", thinking I must have heard it wrong.

"At the train. The M-R-T".

Bear in mind that we take her onto the MRT only occasionally, usually relying on buses or taxis. I checked with her Baba to make sure he hasn't been talking to her about platform gaps recently. I don't know if this is the normal standard for 3-year olds, or that I just have low expectations of her, but I'm suitably impressed. :D

I have even lower expectation for Dennis....I'm just soooo happy that he's finally calling me "Mi Mi". It's still not mummy but I know he's referring to me, and that's all that matters.

Nope, they're just amazing. They have this innate talent for absorbing stuff even when they're NOT paying attention. Seriously!!! And then they just regurgitate it one day, and this could be 2 years later!! It's pretty incredible, these toddler creatures.
