Just Because You Know “Thanks” in Two Languages Doesn’t Mean You’ll Use It

Rilla is playing with the toy phone. Wonderboy wants it.
WB: I have pone?
Rilla: Nuh.
WB: Gib pone!
Rilla: Nuh. NUH!!
WB (offers remote control in exchange): You hab?
Rilla: Nuh.
A brief silence. Wonderboy is deflated. Then, for no visible reason, Rilla holds out the phone to her brother.
Mom, coaching Wonderboy: That was so nice! She gave you the phone. What do you say?
Wonderboy: Dat MY pone.
Uncanny Resemblance

I love it! Conversations between small children who don’t really know or care what’s expected of them, and are unflinchingly honest about what they’re thinking. Adorable.
