Where did Ana learn to say "Have you" instead of "Do you have"? I can only think of one situation where I'd say "have you", and that's while singing Baa Baa Black Sheep.

Incidentally, why is it that every time people mention "songs that all have the same melody" they're sure to use Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star as their demonstration (indeed, that's the demonstration tune for every concept ever, doubly for children) with the alphabet song as another with that tune, but never mention Baa, Baa Black Sheep, which uses the same tune as the first two?

Evangeline now uses one contraction that I've heard. Didn't.

She also says "her" for "she", and probably "him" for "he" as well. Ana had a friend who did that until she was five or so. Her kindergarten teacher wasn't worried, but other people noticed it all the time, not just because she was five but, more importantly, because she looked like a seven or eight year old. *sighs* It's tough being tall sometimes.
