Right Wombat

Today I went grocery shopping and asked her if she wanted cantaloupe or cherries. She said "Daddy doesn't like cherries" so I got the cantaloupe. Tonight the following conversation ensued:

Robert: Why did you tell Mommy I don't like cherries?
Wombat: Well, maybe you can be right next time?

Direct Wombat

After Wombat's shower last night she was discussing shampoo and conditioner with Robert:

Wombat: I like the clean scents. What do you like?
Robert: Well my shampoo smells like rosemary and mint and my conditioner smells like almond butter. I like that combination.
Wombat: Do you think you'll ever try the stuff made for men?

Secret Wombat

At lunch yesterday my daughter was drinking fruit juice.

Me: Did you know that juice has a serving of fruit and vegetables?
Wombat: *turns around box* I kind of guessed by the carrots on the front *taps picture*
....

Wombat: *narrows eyes* What other secrets are you keeping from me?

Taste of the Wombat

I had finished preparing dinner and snagged one of the popcorn shrimp I had made for the Wombat.

Wombat: Hey!
Me: I was just testing the temperature *eep*
Wombat: *sudden surge of realization* How about testing my vegetables? Really! It's OK!
Me: Nice try

Clean Wombat

Wombat: Look Mommy! I got a cut right here! *shows tiny cut on finger*
Me: Ohhh, do you need me to give it a kiss?
Wombat: Um well, no. It's gotten enough gunk in it.

Spot on Wombat

Robert wrapped up showing a "My Little Pony" video on YouTube to the Wombat.

Robert: Oh well. It's over. *changes screens* and ...now it's gone forever!

Wombat: Argh! *starts mussing his hair vigorously with both hands* I'm going to give you ANOTHER bald spot!

A Wombat Story about a Cat

This is a story the Wombat wrote in school. I have edited it for spelling but the content is the same:

"Once there was a cat named Freya.
She was the best cat ever.
She loves to play with her toy mice.
She liked cat kibble but now doesn't.
One day she turned evil. Nobody knew how it happened too.
She ate a cat building and ate all the cat clothing.
She was never heard of again too.
She liked mice but she died."
