Last week I almost forgot about French class so I picked Ellie up late.  She knew I was late.  As soon as she saw me, she ran to me and said "Fen cass!" as if she was saying "hurry, Mommy!"  On the way out the door I told her that I was sorry for being so late.  
In the car she seemed very serious.  
Ellie:  Mommy?
Mommy:  Yes?
Ellie:  Umm...  I wan Fen cass! (in a concerned voice)
Mommy:  You want French class?
Ellie:  Yeah (still concerned)
Mommy:  Ok, that's where we're going.
Ellie:  Good (sighs with relief).
The poor girl thought that we were too late to make it for class!  
Did you notice the full conversation?  Did you?  I certainly did.  I think it was the most real conversation I might have had with her up until this point.  It seemed like there was more back-and-forth between both of us.  And did you notice how excited she was for French class?  She loves it!
