OLIVIA'S SPIN ON THE REBUS

As you know, my Olivia definitely has a bit of the Bunker in her. So it should come as no surprise to you that, even when she's attempting to verbally recreate a rebus story to make her point, it somehow gets misconstrued.

A rebus story (in case ya didn't know) is a story where some of the words are replaced with pictures. And one of the most common rebus lines ever has got to be this one;

And the above rebus is exactly the one that Olivia goes around saying to us all the time. Only, she doesn't get it quite right. And so she affectionately says, "Sheep, heart, y."

SHEEP. HEART. Y. What a beautiful way to say, "I love you." And only my Olivia could put it just so. Sheep heart y to you too, my sweet daughter. Sheep heart y from me to you.

That is so sweet! I know when the eldest (13) says I hate you, he means I love you- You're doing a great job!
