I’M A MERMAID! I’M A MERMAID!

You know, I often find myself wondering how the tiny little gears that crank the brain of a toddler work. It’s amazing really, their thought processes and the constant WHY? WHY? WHY? I love every bit of it. every single moment.
I like it best when I watch her think something through, even if the result is as ridiculous as the following:
Allie while admiring a picture of the Little Mermaid, “the little mermaid has red hair….
She then grabs a lock of her own red hair and stares, thinking for a moment or two…
Then, she looks at me, her eyes bordering a hopeful sort of insanity, ” MOM! MOM! MOM! I’m A MERMAID! I’M A MERMAID! SHE HAS RED HAIR!! AND…AND…I HAVE REDHAIR!! I’M A MERMAID!!! I’M A MERMAID! WOOOOO!!!!”
hmm…

On a slightly related note, when I was little, like 3-4, I was totally and completely convinced that little elves ran my brain. By ran, I mean that when they needed information they just got it out of long corridors filled with the filing cabinets that housed my brainy information. I was so convinced, that once I was scared if I swallowed…I might somehow drown them. I would do anything to not have to swallow. I’m pretty sure this idea was fueled by a Muppet Babies episode in which they explored the brain and found little elves running the show.
I so should not have just told that to the internet.

LOL! Too cute! I love her red curls.
I can’t believe you remember that about swallowing. That must have been some impression those muppets made for you to recall detailed images of that from near toddlerhood.
