conversations with a 21 month old
While reading Mysterious Thelonious:
Me (reading): "This is a story about the lovely music of Mister Monk"
George: JAZZ!

While watching a National Geographic documentary on bears, which showed brown bears eating salmon:
George (pretending to be on the phone): Mama...no, Papa bear! Eating sharks! Yeah? Yeah! Bye bye.
* * *
Me: Uh oh, you dropped your water!
George: (gingerly picking up his water bottle) Uh oh! ...kay? Yeah. Good. Thank you! (copious kisses for the injured water bottle)

George: (shoving a graham cracker into the cat's face) "Happy birthday!...Hi, happy birthday!" (shoves the cracker a little more forcefully into the cat's face, now yelling) "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!"

While reading a book wherein Eeyore loses his tail:
Me: "Uh oh, did the donkey lose his tail?"
George: (trying futilely to pick the [picture of the] tail up) "Help!" (pointing at the tail) "SEE?!"
Me: "Um...he'll find it eventually!"
George: (crying) "Hee haw sad! Help! Help!"
