This isn't really a 'funny' thing that Audrey has said, more of an observation about the English language. Generally Audrey's speech is pretty good for a (nearly) 3 year old. There's a lot of kids her age that neither speak as well or clearly as she does - her vocabulary (and things she remembers) never ceases to amaze us both.One 'fault' that she has picked up though is rather than saying 'I am' when you ask Audrey a question about herself or her situation she more often responds 'Am are'.
It's an interesting take on the English language. "Are you eating your dinner?" Is usually answered "Am are" or alternatively (on a bad day) "Am are not". It means you have to do a second-take when you hear her, but you soon get used to her particular interpretation of the English language.
Here's some pics of her and her brother on the settee this morning.
