Act I
Daddy: Do you want some applejuice?
Athena: Yeppa
Daddy: What the hell is "Yeppa?!" Say, "Yes!"
Athena: Yes
Daddy: Good. Now, do you want some applejuice?
Athena: Yeppa

Daddy: Hi
Athena: Hi
Daddy: I
Athena: I
Daddy: am
Athena: am
Daddy: Boots
Athena: Booze
Daddy: I
Athena: I
Daddy: love

Athena: fuck!
Mommy: Athena, say, "Firetruck."

  3. Our darling two year old has started saying "No way Jose"
    I don't know WHERE she got it from.

    "Want to take a nap?"
    "No way Jose."

    I'm not Jose.
