Tonight, as Hannah stepped out of the bath, she said, "Brrrr... I'm freezing. I'm like an ice cube!" Oh, the joy of figurative language. Similes today, metaphors tomorrow, and then she'll be using intentional parallel structures in her speech.
And why not? She has mastered onomatopoeia... not just the animal sounds either, she can say the word "whine" with just the right inflection and a certain irritating something that actually defines the essence of the term.
Still, her little simile gave me a little smilie :)
