(1) I would like it to be known that it was ceelove, not me or dilletante, who was teaching Natalie this morning that zombies say "braaaaaains" just like ducks say "quack" or horses say "neigh" or monsters say "raaar".

(2) I am, right now, going totally crazy. I'm waiting for a call back from the hiring manager of a job I want, where I really liked the people I'd be working with, etc etc etc. Yes is fine, no is fine, I'll tell you in a week is fine, but suspense is NOT!

Hee hee hee. Cian had a similar one. From a pretty early point he knew ducks, horses, cats, dogs, cows... and dragons. I don't even know who he learned it from!

"What do dragons say?"

(in the biggest deepest voice a very small person can manage)
"DIE!"

This is unbearably cute.

that literally made me laugh out loud enough that i had to explain it to my officemate :)

Excellent.

It had the same effect on me, laughter-wise, many times.

"DIE!"

TWO things to add to our list. Our other parenting role models are too conventional to think of these.

Although the first dragon books *I* read were McCaffrey so "DIE!" may not be the answer. OTOH I far prefer The Hero and the Crown to Dragonflight now that the choice is available so maybe "DIE!" it is. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

I'm not sure what source Cian got it from. I think I didn't even know if he knew the word "die" until that arose.
(This was well over a year ago, in any case.)

Tough decisions ahead, for sure!

It's been suggested that dragons say "You look tasty."
