maybe it’s just kid slang that you don’t know yet. Because we apple in the car all the time over here.
Ryan’s last blog post..Week 28
Technically Napkin could be short for nappie. like diaper. Maybe she’s just secretly Brittish?
So she is secretly a Brittish nanny who napkins kids. Duh!
Or she’s harboring chicken eggs in her closet. Better go check….
Molly’s last blog post..roneydapony: Huge hugs to everyone who is celebrating #maddie’s life today. RIP Madeline. I’m wearing purple today. are you?
LOL. The “You boy at school” is somewhat disturbing.
Hey – at least all the letters are in the right order – that’s huge!
I think I’ll start calling my husband the “egg” – just to be able to say the egg is home. Brilliant!
Futureblackmail’s last blog post..SOCCER – BABY STEP #1
Well, an egg is in a nest. We call it nesting at home. So, “the egg is home” makes perfect sense. Brilliant.
Playground for Parents’s last blog post..A Week of Great Giveaways and Cool Product Reviews!
Haha… she is very smart and creative!
Loukia’s last blog post..Tuesday Ramblings
Does that say ‘boy’ or ‘box’? Has she taken up boxing at school??
You never know what the “story” was in her head. It could have made perfect sense if the great scheme of things! Just not with four sentences.
I LOVE it! Perhaps she was just being creative and independent. Who needs directions and sentences that make sense anyway?
I’m impressed, she has more creativity and better penmanship than I do. I wonder if I can redo preschool, especially if there is boxing!
Perfect!
nonconformity at it’s best!
Sticky’s last blog post..Snow? WTH?
K—that is just TOOO cute!!! :) Who cares…it’s pre-school, and everyone has their talents in different areas…right? My kids talent is creating her own outfits… :)
Shelle-BlokThoughts’s last blog post..I’m so VAIN!!!
This makes perfact sense to me , particulary reading it first thing in the morning without benefit of speed-and the fact that she can make the pencil work in the way it was intended is absolutely brilliant! Yes, She is a genius- her penmanship is better than my husbands and he is well passed preschool!
Looks pretty good for pre-k. She even spelled napkin right. That is pretty awesome.
Jennifer’s last blog post..A day of my life…
I’m with Jennifer. I think she did great for preschool.
Secret Mom Thoughts’s last blog post..Ticked Off Tuesday-The Back Handed Compliment
She’s in preschool and she knows how to spell “napkin”… I’d say that’s pretty darn good. Seeing as how my 6 year old still calls them “nakins”… and I’m pretty sure she’d spell it that way, too. n-a-k-i-n-.
Shannon’s last blog post..She still has some learnin’ to do…
Wast that you bore me at school?
DC Urban Dad’s last blog post..Where in the world is DC Urban Dad?
See I apparently flunked too because I cannot spell.
Um, seriously, if she’s 4 years old and she can write all those things, then she IS gifted. Even if she’s 5, that’s pretty talented. Even if it doesn’t make sense.
Texan Mama’s last blog post..My Legacy
I have never laughed harder at a blog entry, yet!
I have something very similar that my little einstein, Bram, did. Except his involved extremely poor scissor skills. At almost 4 he can’t even draw a circle. So Lily is VERY advanced if you ask me.
SO FUNNY!
courtney’s last blog post..You might be a redneck if…..
Oh heck no! She is not flunking! I am bor at school too and my egg is home. It is in the frig. I like to napkin the kids too. It is just neater that way.
Brilliant child!!
I voted for ya!
Vickie’s last blog post..Blue Necklace Giveaway
They sound kind of like cryptic spy messages “the pearl is in the river,” “the falcon has landed,” “the egg is home.”
Kate Coveny Hood’s last blog post..Womily Touch Jewelry: Great New Gift Idea – Plus Some Bonus Nudity
She’s very creative – definitely a sign of giftedness. And if she becomes a write you can pull this out someday!
T Rex Mom’s last blog post..Spin the Sea Turtle
Ahhh. Apple makes much more sense than Abbie! Kind of. hehe.
I love that she napkins a kid. Maybe she meant kid-napped? lol.
”you boy at school” is a command in street slang.
as in ”Hey you! boy! at school!” she is telling someone [maybe ben] its time get to get a move on and get to school.
and since Lily is so neat she always napkins a kid.
and i am going to apple in the car tomorrow. i might even coffee, apple and water in the car. so there.
and friday i am going to Jill and Evan in the car. YEAH! cant wait to see you.
“We Appie”… I wonder what that means. She is probably more intelligent than she leads on to. She probably is in protest over having to take a test and would much rather be doing something more productive than “busy work’. I never liked having to use the green scissors in preschool even though I was left handed.
Christopher (AKA: CaJoh)’s last blog post..That happened at my wedding too
Funniest thing ever. I certainly hope you are keeping that to display when she graduates #1 in her class, right?!
John Deere Mom’s last blog post..Mouse Hunt
Tell me I’m not the only one who thinks she’s playing madlibs here. A big smarty pants, indeed! Lilly, I get you. ;)
p.s. I voted. :)
Ryan Ashley Scott’s last blog post..New Doggy Door
Pfah, who needs the rules of English anyway?
I napkin’d a guy at lunch today too. He was ogling my sandwich a little too closely.
Keely’s last blog post..Bunnies, more spiders, and huge bazongas: Random Tuesday Thoughts
She did spell every word correct though!
Way to go Lily!
Christina’s last blog post..I LOVE MY LAZY LIFE
I don’t know what you mean…it makes perfect sense to me! :)
Ronda’s Rants’s last blog post..Dear Anonymous
hehehe. I love this.
christy’s last blog post..Things I like
Okay the whole “we apple in the car” made me giggle.
Amber’s last blog post..Help! I’m Surrounded by Moon Sand!
creativity is a sign of genius. :)
Maybe it was some sort of Madlib thing where they had to plug in random words? lol
Roxane’s last blog post..Random Tuesday, a boring return…
It’s the blue crayon that gives it away.
Cheers
Maddy’s last blog post..Shark infested waters
I can’t stop laughing long enough to think of a clever comment. That is truly hilarious. Thank you. I really needed a good laugh today.
Kari (heartatpreschool)’s last blog post..a moment for Maddie
the teacher’s writing is in blue right?
she’s a frikkin’ genius
that’s a keeper
scrappysue’s last blog post..wordful wednesday – C is for clutz, not cupcakes
That’s pretty much how my madlibs always turn out.
Also, I’m pretty sure her writing skills are awesome for a preschooler. Be proud. :)
Angela’s last blog post..Motivation schmotivation.
And she’s really cute :-)
But seriously, I’m pretty sure she was just messing with the teacher ;-)
Elisa’s last blog post..Happy Blogiversary!
OMG that is too cute!
I agree with those above saying that it’s amazing she got all the letters right, and in order! She IS gifted… just also creative :)
Jaden’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesdays #21 Me and My Dada…
Hell, we apple in the car too. Doesn’t everyone? No? I guess it’s only us intellectually superior who do.
Hey,
She spelled everything right….that’s a good thing….The letters were not backwards…all good.
at least you could read what she wrote and she used very pretty colors
jessica’s last blog post..Whaaaaa….T?
Hey, she spelled apple correctly. What’s the big deal?
:)
tracey’s last blog post..2 am. Party in my room.
Dude, She may be clairvoyant. If she is, based on the first item–I’d take a pregnancy test!
She is gifted beyond belief : ) And pretty as a peach. Just like her Mommy : ).
Life with Kaishon’s last blog post..Muscles or something like them…
I like the way she thinks!
desireefawn’s last blog post..keeping your clean green.
Maybe she’s too deep for us to understand! :-)
Angelika’s last blog post..Yummy!
It’s poetry. Pure poetry. This is one of the great things about blogs – now you have it saved forever with a date. So Classic.
threeundertwo’s last blog post..Wordful Wednesday: Hubs
I love posts like this! Classic! Save this forever!
Jenners’s last blog post..Goldilocks and the Three Bloggers
I am rolling!!! I am sure it’s the teacher’s fault. Precious!!!
jill’s last blog post..I Might Be A Red Head
Hilarious! Love the way kids think!
Miss E’s last blog post..Lights and Tunnels

I’m LMAO…. great Sunday morning laff with my cup of joe. I agree with Jill, I think it’s most likely the teacher’s fault!
Oz Girl’s last blog post..Oh, to be In Beautiful Venice!

Kellan’s last blog post..I Wonder If It’s Raining In The Big Easy?

They would make good Twitter posts. lol You’d better save this for when she gets older and becomes a famous writer…
Rhea’s last blog post..Breaking the Law
That is too adorable! I wonder what she was thinking at the time? Kids think of the strangest things sometimes! The Egg is home.. lol thank goodness! wouldn’t want the egg to be getting in to trouble hanging out with the other bad eggs!
-Bill
When madlibs attack? That’s awesome!
Warren’s last blog post..Unsafe!
Sorry only just coming across this post. Been terrible with keeping up lately. I’ve been working hard – gasp – and am such a procrastinator that once I open up blogs work gets sidelined.
ahhh, side tracked. Sorry!
Lily’s a genius… think about
Egg is home – cause she eats egg at home, not at school, not at movies, at home.
What kids doesn’t need napkins? I napkin my kid ALL the time!
Boy at school – well, I only hope Jeff has a shotgun :)
Apples in cars make perfect snacks…
I doubt you need me to rationalise her brilliance, but there it is.
Hilarious post! Love it!
And the best part, it’s saved forever! memories…
