Disclaimer

William is still learning the English language and needs help some times.

He likes to say
I bited my bagel or I “boat” my bagel instead of I bit my bagel.

So Natalie was giving him an English lesson this morning. She corrected his improper use of the word then made a sentence to show him how to use the word correctly.

N: “Now I’m NOT going to do this to you, but I’m going to say it to show you how to use the word”
“William I am going to BITE YOU”!
“But I wouldn’t ever really do that, it’s just an example Will, do you know how to use the word now”?

Later in the morning this was the conversation

Natalie asked me to care for her elephant this afternoon.

N: Mom, I set up my bed so you can reach my Elephant so after you pick up William and feed him lunch and you eat your lunch, can you feed my elephant her lunch then put her down for her nap.

M: (Mean Mom) I don’t think so Natalie
W: I can do it Natalie; I’ll climb up into your bed and feed her :-) :-) :-)?????
N: Ok, thank you William
(About 10 Minutes later)
W: So Natalie what time does Ellie need to eat?
Natalie and William are in their room and Natalie is giving William very specific instructions on the care of her elephant.

Isn’t he a sweet little brother to help her out like that

Plans have changed and the elephant is going to school today?
