Zusha's Gems

"Mama, vava!"
"Where is your vava, Zusha?"
Touches foot.
"On your foosie?"
Points to heel:
"No, on foosie chin!"

We put out food for the birds one night on the window sill right outside our window. It was dark already, so I explained to Zusha that the birds are all sleeping and will come take the food tomorrow.
Zusha seemed a little anxious. I asked him what the matter was.
"Foygalach ken nisht nemen shpaiz." (The birds can't take the food.)
I told him that they can't take it now because they are sleeping, but tomorrow they will come take it.
"Foygalach ken nish nemen. Fogalach hoben nisht kein hentelach!" (The birds can't take it, they don't have have hands!)

Gedalya was jumping in the doorway jumper when Zusha said he wanted to jump. I told him that he has to wait because it's Gedalya's turn.
He waited. When he got in, he began to spin around in the jumper saying, "Now it's Zusha's 'turn!' "

Zusha wasn't used to the fact that Gedalya was pulling to a stand. So he pushed him down. When I asked why he did it, he said, "Zusha helps Gedalya to fall!"
