Conversation With Ern

Conversation # 1:

One of the evenings, Ern was doing something (sorry, i forgot what was it) that we didn't want her to do. While trying to stop her from doing that, here's our conversation.

Mummy: Ern, it's dangerous, you cannot do XX!
Mummy: Do you know if you do XX, you will get yourself hurt, bla bla bla (I continue lectured on her, trying to tell her the possible causes of her act)
Ern: Stop it! (and raise both of palms up and face me)
Mummy: *stunt*


Oh boy...she understands the implication of 'stop it', which is a common word we used to ask her to stop whining.


Conversation # 2:

There is a local pizza shop just right opposite our house. One our way home in one of the evenings..

Ern: Mummy, pizza shop (pointing to the shop)
Mummy: Yes
Ern: Hi Pizza (wave to the shop)
Ern: It's me, Ern Ern
Mummy: *wonder when and where did she pick up the word it's me *


When I shared with daddy later on, he thinks Ern must have picked up from the cartoon that she watched because none of us taught her the word.
