"Oblivia"
I'm in the bathroom and Olivia tries opening the door. I quickly lock it before she opens it and I say, "Do you mind?" Then Olivia politely says, "Mom, what does 'mind' mean?" In my hastiness I reply, "Bother, Don't bother me, I'm in the bathroom!" Olivia then says, "Why don't you just say, 'Don't mind me?'" At this point I had to laugh and then proceeded to correct myself in this teaching moment. I love my little Olivia; we nickname her "Oblivia". She's our little space cadet in so many ways and in just as many ways she surprises us with her ability to learn and memorize anything she sets her mind to.
