For some reason, Charlotte likes to hint about what she wants rather than just ask for it.  Most of her hinting is about food or candy.  She’ll say something like:

“what is that?  Is it chocolate?  I like chocolate.  Chocolate is brown.” 

She’ll keep describing what she wants, but never really ask for it until you ask her if she wants some.  Then she’ll sweetly say “yes!”  My favorite instance of this was our  last Sunday in Orem when Grandma and Grandpa Cochran came to see the kid’s primary program.  Charlotte was visiting with her grandparents when I heard her say:

“that candy is not in my mouth.”

I think it was last week that we had the following conversation as I was sitting in my rocking chair feeding Ila.

Charlotte:  “Mom, do you know how to spell Tom and Jerry?”

Me:  “Yes”

Charlotte:  “That’s the grey remote.”

Charlotte:  “You can skip with that remote.”

Charlotte:  “how you skip is, you push on the dotted arrow button”

Me:  “Charlotte, would you like me to turn on Tom and Jerry?”

Charlotte:  “Yes!”
