"Help me Nobi Nobi." (translation: help me obi-wan kenobi)
"I don't like you Mommy." (pause, knows this is not okay to say) "You're a good mommy, Mommy."
(Linus now will try to see what he can get away with by saying things like "I don't like you couch" or some other object).
"Oh boy!"
"Shhh. It's okay Baby Eileen. I'm here. Your big brother's here."
Me: (using a pretend mad voice) Where's my good night kiss!?!
Linus: Right here!!
Sometimes Linus likes to anticipate what he thinks we should say.
(While hiding) "Oh no, I lost my Linus."
(Eyes closed) "Wake up Linus. Linus wake up."
(Using a silly, yet disciplining voice after knocking over blocks) "Linus!"
(While doing something mildly dangerous) "Be careful Linus."
As a part of his imaginative play, Linus has taken to calling our doctor, Dr. Moscovitz, on the phone, believing he can solve all problems.
(Opens door to another room) "Oh no, Monsters! Call Doc Mosc-vitz." (grabs phone and pretends to dial) "Beep boop boop beep. Hello? Doc Mosc-vitz? There are monsters. Okay." (hangs up phone) "He'll be right over."
Dr. Moscovitz usually prescribes band-aids when Linus, dressed as a shark, bites off Eileen's leg.
