Alice now frequently says “thank you very much!”. Sometimes it is after she has done some interpretive dance or a particularly good jump, but sometimes it is for no reason Mom or I can percieve. She says it in a very earnest voice. This evening she has added the demand that Mom and I clap for her.
Alice: Mommy, Daddy, clap for me.
[Mom and Dad clap]
Alice: Thank you very much.
However, Charles is not allowed to clap for Alice — she became quite irate when Charles joined in the Mom and Dad clapping without be specifically instructed to do so by Alice. Seems to me that she’s already got what it takes to succeed in the entertainment industry.
I think the “Thank you very much” came from the Upside Down Show. The characters will frequently do something and then say “Thank you very much” in an Elvis style. Alice doesn’t quite have the Elvis bit down yet though.
