LA Girl

As an Angeleno, I am not sure how Matilda could be anything but car-centric. Lately, in addition to her penchant to identify cars, we have been noticing some other funny car-related comments she makes. 

M has taken to saying, at random while driving around, "That man was not driving good!" I am sure this originates from hearing Tim & I grumble about our fellow drivers. We have mostly cleaned up our language while driving, but will still occasionally make a "come on now" or "move along" type comment. M is very aware of anything uttered in this vein and will immediately demand an explanation. Our stock answer is that someone was not driving well or not following the driving rules. I love that she is now offering her own assessment of the situation. 

Another indication of her city living manifests while she drives her Big Wheel around the apartment. M will declare as she climbs off of the trike, "That's a good parking spot!" She sure sounds like an LA girl through and through!
