Son of a monkey and God
We were at our friends sons birthday party last weekend. William turned 5 and naturally we celebrated this with cake and soda. Daniel had a blast as always playing with his best friend (who hopefully moves closer to us any year now). Wiliam has a sister who is a year younger than Daniel, Ellen. The boys don't always want to have her around, so she came to the kitchen with us adults. We were talking and playing with marbles with her for a while. Since she's a kid, she thinks that she decides everything and so she made up the rules. She only rolled the marbles to me and not to Marc. So after a while Marc pretended to get upset and left the room stomping his feet. Ellen laughed at him and said that he walked just like a monkey. It kind of did look like that.
Daniel is using more and more Finnish words. I talk to him in Finnish basically all the time. But so far he has always answered back in Swedish. He understands almost everything I say in Finnish and Marc has started to pick up some Finnish as well. I get to enjoy Daniels language mix the most, since so far I'm the only trilangual one in our family. It just sounds funny when he starts a sentence in Swedish, throws in a couple of Finnish words and finishes off with Swedish again. This morning on our way to daycare Daniel was asking me stuff and I answered in Finnish and he repeated the words I said. So when we got out of the car I told him how proud I was of him for being so good in Finnish. He got really proud and gave me a high five. So at the day care he saw a poster with a magnifying glass and for some reason he thought that was really funny. He put his hands on his cheeks and laughed and said Mama God. If you think about it Oh my god kind of sounds like that. But do four year old kids really use that phrase?
