Busch Gardens in a Home

Arthur was very cantankerous this morning saying, "I don't want any music." I turned on the soundtrack from The Rings of Power and he started to make a really whiney, "Nooooo" but then he stopped and got this really curious look on his face. After a moment, he gave me a wide-eyed look and said, "It sounds like Busch Gardens! It's Busch Gardens in a home!"

Mom

Teddy and Westley's conversation (I missed the beginning):

T: "Her name is Mom."

W: "Oh I think she's called Evie! Not mom."

Me: *laughing*

W: "Are you Evie?"

Me: "My real name is Evie but you call me Mama!"

W: (with a big grin) "Oh! Her name is Mama too!!!"

T: "I don't call you Mama anymore. I call you Mom now."

This morning’s convo:

T: we forgot to watch River dance yesterday!!! It’s a long movie.

Me: oh yeah? Did you watch that with Elsh?

W: no, Lal!!!

Me: that’s what I said; Elsh is Lal.

W: yep! And Mims is Mimsy and Pop is Papa.

From Olivia

 rRminds me of when I was trying to explain to them real name vs nickname. And then after explaining I said “so let’s practice. Is Dub your real name or nickname?” 

W: “real name!!”
