Evangelina's language abilities have exploded of late, & at times we find ourselves arguing with our 2.5 year old as if she were a 5 or 6 year old girl, complete with her own expressive rebuttals & explanations.
One thing that she's said a lot in the last few weeks is "Guess what?..." before she tells us something. We think she hears us say it a lot (probably mostly to & from Jadon), & our guess is that it means to her, "Hey, listen to this!..."
Just about 3 or 4 days ago (I wish I'd written it down immediately as I've forgotten what she said exactly), I heard Evangelina mistakenly use an irregular verb in the past tense according to the regular verb rules. She was talking about Jadon, & said something like "Jadon already geted it" or "Jadon already gived it." It really stunned me because it means she's understanding that there are rules in grammar, & she over-applied a regular grammar rule to an irregular verb. My understanding was that this kind of error was mostly committed by 4 & 5 year olds! Oh our little precociously expressive girl!
