February 2011: Lydia instigates a food sit down.
One morning after speech therapy. Lydia's hungry.
Lydia: EAT! EAT!
The other kids: EAT! EAT!
The washer sounds.
Kids: POPCORN POPCORN!
Lydia: SIT DOWN!
The other kids sit down too.
Lydia, Ms. Ringleader, banging on the table: YUMMY! YUMMY!
The other kids start banging on the table too: YUMMY! YUMMY!
Mixing Words
Lydia was watching me sweep the kitchen floor.
Lydia: Wha' doin'?
Me: Sweeping the floor. Do you want to sweep?
Lydia: Yes!
I hand her the broom. She starts 'sweeping'.
Me: Are you sweeping?
Lydia stops sweeping, bends her head to the side, closes her eyes: zzzzzzz
Me: Not SLEEPING, SWEEPING!!
