My wife told me she and J had approximately this conversation today (in English):
J: "Mommy, you know I feel that I've been speaking German my whole life."
K: "Well, you practically have, honey. Daddy started speaking German with you when you were just two. You hadn't even been speaking English that long."
J: "Yeah. And I didn't want to speak German at first. That's when we got Friedel."
K: "Do you remember that?"
J: "No, Daddy told me. Friedel was the first puppet. Thusnelda came later. Thusnelda doesn't mind that Friedel is called 'the main piggy.' Except for sometimes, like on her birthday. Then she wants to be called the main piggy."
