I am the oldest of four kids, and even I was shocked to discover a name-calling loop hole that Claire found.
Yesterday, I was telling her to do something, and she yelled, “You’re a monster!”
Just as she said the word, I said, “WHAT!?”
And she drug out the ending of the word and added, “Hunter!”
I laughed out loud.
“You’re a monster HUNTER!” she said again, hoping she wouldn’t end up in the time-out corner for name-calling. “You know…you hunt for monsters,” she said, still back-pedaling as fast as an almost-4-yr old can pedal.
Her points for creativity saved her.
This time.


And she’s a little minx hunter.
Clever Claire!
I think I’ll try it the next time I am driving. Lots of donkey hunters out there.
LOL…that is the most cleaver idea, I have heard out of a child! She is one smart cookie, that’s for sure!!
Cute little thing, she’s so clever!
