I had a funny conversation with Erica today. Well, I thought it was funny. Not sure if it will translate across to written form, but will try anyway.
Erica had just woken up from a nap. She walked into my bedroom and this conversation ensued:
Erica: where's Daddy?
Me: Daddy is flying somewhere for work
Erica then ran out of the room and returned a minute later wearing her fairy costume. She started leaping around the room saying "flying like Daddy, flying like Daddy!"
I now wonder if every time I tell Erica that Daddy is away 'flying' she imagines him floating through the air fairy-style. I think she understands what an aeroplane is (we live under a flight path). I may need to be more specific in future.
