“No!” Essie said with an upward lilt in her inflection, meaning she was saying her word for snow, that she saw it falling and wanted to tell me the huge flakes were settling on her face, transforming into tiny little water droplets as the warmth of her skin transformed them.
A few entries in the English to Essie dictionary:
Scoop: bey-doup
Dante the Dragon: bee-lah
Pine nut: ma-guck
Ess demonstrates the last one for us in this video. The middle one is because the dragon chases Ess and says “blah” at her. I’m starting to understand why parents have such an easy time understanding their kids.
We sing “Belly Breathe” to Essie and she sings it back to us.
Dante Fiero the dragon loves Yule Logs, televised or otherwise.
I like everything in this video except the “Young Living” on the side of the box. I hate Young Living. I do love Essie, though.
