As previously stated, Lillian is very aware of her surroudnings and loves to be in the car. She likes to eat her snacks in the car and make statements/bark orders at her driver(s).
- "Turn up" - driver please turn up the volume so I can jam to The Wiggles (Which she will be seeing LIVE IN CONCERT in August. We have seats right on the floor!) She even knows whcih button is for the volume and if she sees your hand go near the knob, she will say, "No no, just put your hand down now."
- "Are there any silly drivers here?" - we try not to say the words stupid or dumb so we have replaced them with silly. The other week there we were in a road construction area and lots of cars were doing silly things. I told her that and that we were going to go a different way to avoid them. So every time we get near that area, she is on the lookout for silly drivers.
- "Beep your horn at them" -if I happen to mention there are silly drivers, she wants me to beep the horn at them.
- "There are a lot of cars coming" - when she sees cars coming towards us
- "Do we have our lights on?" - it was raining this morning while we were in the car and I guess she saw the lights from the other cars.
- "Just hit that stick" - to turn the windshield wipers on. She gets very concerned when there are raindrops on the car and I have not turned the wipers on yet. She seems to think that for even ONE raindrop the wipers must go on.
- "Are we going to stop?" - when she sees a red light.
- "Those cars are down. We are up." - this morning as we went through an overpass.
- "Are we turning left/right?" - when I say we are going to make a left/right turn.
- "Oh, where we find a parking spot?" - when I am looking for a parking spot in downtown that I do not have to pay for!
