can you say that again?

Kara has started preschool and LOVES it!  She is doing so well and learning so much.  I am very impressed with her teacher and the many different things she has been teaching the kids.  Kara is learning sign language, how to write her name, letters, numbers, the Pledge of Allegiance, and Spanish-- among other things.  So the other day after school she is sitting at the table eating lunch and she says to me, "mom, what does de nada mean?"  and I tell her "you're welcome".  She then asks me, "what does glass ass mean?"  um.  what?  "what does what mean?" I ask.  "Glass ass".  Then it clicks.  "oh, you mean gracias."  I had a good giggle in my head over that one.

We've also been helping her out with the Pledge.  She can usually start it and then I'll say a couple words and help her figure the rest out.  So this is how it went the other day when we were over at my aunt and uncle's house:

Kara: I pledge allegiance
Me:  to the...
K: unicorn! 
M: (trying not to giggle) nope, how about flag?
K: oh.  flag.  Of the United Steaks of America.  And to the Republic under ground
Me: under God
K: oops!  under God, individual
Me: indivisible
Kara: indivisible, with liverty and justice for all.


And to top it all off, Kara said our family prayer the other night.  It went something like this:
"Heavenly Father, thank you for my mom and dad, and nana and papa, and grandma and grandpa.  Thank you for I can go to school.  Thank you for Ms. Bonnie.  Thanks for I can learn" (and she sings this song, to the tune of Frere Jacques): "buenos dias, buenos dias, como esta, como esta, muy bien glass ass, muy bien glass ass, y usted, y usted.  Amen."

Awesome!!!!  I love this girl!!!!
