The duck part 2
Tonight, I picked up Gillian from school. In the car I asked "How was your day?" She didn't answer me. I asked again "Gillian, how was your day?" She said "I don't want to talk about it now." Ugh. I hate that. So we sat in silence for awhile until she heard something on the radio. "Mama, can you make it louder?" It was a commercial for the new Imagine Dragons song. She said "I want to hear it. Mama where did it go." Unfortunately it was just a commercial, and we didn't get to hear the whole song. So again we sat in silence. Then she said "Can we play the duck game?" About a month ago I blogged about how she was quacking in the backseat and I kept asking her about the duck. Well that's what she wanted to do. So she quacked and I asked "Gillian, did you hear that?" And she laughed. Then she quacked again and again. I played along and questioned if she saw the duck. She thought it was hilarious. Finally she said "It was me! I am the duck!" Love her.

Duck, duck, goose
Daddy went to pick the kids up from school today. He found Gillian in the big room with all of her fiends. They were all sitting in a circle playing "Duck, Duck, Goose." Daddy watched them play from the hallway thru the window on the door. He watched as a little boy tapped Gillian on her head and said "Goose!" Gillian got up right away and chased him. He was just a little bit faster and sat down before she could tag him. Gillian then walked around the circle tapping her friends on their heads and saying "Duck, duck, duck." Daddy knew that she was headed right to Dorlisa. He was right. Gillian reached Dorlisa and said "Goose!" He decided to walk in the door while she was distracted running from Dorlisa. That didn't work. Because Gillian saw Daddy right away and went running to him. She ran super fast and wiped out. She hit the floor with her outstretched arms. Daddy consoled her. One of the teachers suggested that Gillian have another turn. While Gillian walked around the circle Daddy whispered to the teachers "She's just going to pick Dorlisa again." Again Daddy was right. She reached Dorlisa and said "Goose!" And went running around the circle until she got back to Dorlisa's spot and she sat down.
