Today I was reading Amelia Bedelia to Theo:
ERIN: And please draw the drapes at noon, Amelia.
THEO: She doesn't mean draw the drapes. She means close the curtains. She should just say that.
If only Amelia had had Theo as a helper, think of all the mess she would have avoided...although he would have ruined a good book!

I'm glad Theo wants to help Amelia. Those were some of my favorite books as a kid. :D
Love Amelia Bedelia. Really makes you think about the confusion of language. I have to go dress the chicken now:)
ha ha! That is cute. :) Good point, Mama Julie...I should start using Amelia Bedelia when I teach ESL!!!!
