Its been a while since I recorded what Miss Daisy has to say.
Her older sister is a deep thinker, and very sharp smart, her eldest sister is a talented, delightful people person, her brother is a tad cynical but super clever, with the nicest kind streak ever... Daisy is many things, just like them, but she just has this way of wording things. No doubt she will outgrow it, but right now? I've a cross between a diva and Confucius. Wonderful, wonderful. Theres a lot of love out there for Daisy-isms.
Yesterday I am in the car with Daisy. Out of the blue she says 'I have a new quote'
A new quote? I said thinking erm....what??
Yes, I thought of it the other day, she says, '-every door will open, you just need to find the right key'
I mean! I have no idea where the profoundness comes from, but she absolutely has a point!

I love you Mummy, you are the best Mummy I have, and I know I only have one but you'd still be the best even if I had two...

Do you think Mollie will mind if her gift is small in size?
no dont be silly I reply, Some of the most expensive or rare or special things are in tiny packages, I proceed to list all sorts of small things from diamonds to lucky coins, Mollie will not mind a bit.
there is a pause
then she says Id still rather have big gifts.

We are changing the dressing on my wounded finger. I tell Daisy she neednt look but that I need someone to pass me the dressing. She looks. Its not a particularly pretty sight granted, but her next statement is rather harsh. Its okay Mummy, at least its just caused an ugly finger and not an ugly face. Ouch Daisy! LOL!

Having recently been on a skiing trip with just her and Daddy, Daisy has accidentally called me Daddy two or three times in conversation.
Daisy I laugh, Do I look like Daddy?
Oh no she says, for a start you drink a lot less beer....

We are gift shopping, and have only difficult people left to buy for, I buy Mr Britguy something that I am not sure of, not quite sure if its right. I turn to the girls and say, what do you think? Do you think Daddy will like this?
Quick as a flash she says Its okay, Ill have a word with him and tell him to just say he does....
!
Personally I cannot wait to hear her thoughts on Christmas!
