Gianna’s questions and answers

One time Gianna was trying to open something that she was having a hard time with. I forget what it was. I wasn’t really looking at her. She came to me and said, “How do dis?”  

When she’s looking for someone or something, her sentence goes like, “Where’s Noelle’s es?” “Where’s mommy es?” “Where’s ducky es?” 

When she’s asking permission for electronics, she says “Blablet? (Tablet)” or “Phone olee? (phone only)” or “Taptop? (Laptop)” 

Sometimes, when we say No to her, she says “aw-wh.”

When she wants to tell me about something that happened or that something was done to her, she goes “Mommy o, mommy o!”

When she likes something, she says “I love et!”

When she finds something or someone funny, she says “Funny.” That’s usually daddy or ate Noelle.

When she wants to keep us from doing something or going somewhere, she says “No, not allowed!”

One time…

Gianna: Where’s wowa? Me: Makati. 

Gianna: Manang mul-let? (Manang Milette) Me: With wowa. 

Gianna: Donae? (Danae) Me: School. 

Me: Where’s daddy? Gianna: School. 

Me: No, where’s daddy? Gianna: SM. Haha was trying to get her to say office. 🙂
