I am a Bankress??

We were watching Deal or No deal last night, and it was the Hunks episode. ie hunks were holding the briefcases instead of those pretty girls.

M-i-l decided to tease little D and asked her: Look at those men. Handsome or not? Is papa one of them?

Little D answered: No! He is the banker!

M-i-l: If you were one of the pretty girls, what case would you be carrying?

Little D: Number 8

M-i-l: What about mummy?

Little D: No, mummy is the bankress!

Not sure where she learnt that word from?? Could be she thinks:
actor - actress,
waiter - waitress,
so banker - bankress!!
(Hmmm, must get her to spend some time at freerice.com)

Does she think I am not pretty enough to be carrying one of those cases??? Boo hoo!

Hahaha! Clever gal! Daddy is the banker, and that of course makes mommy the Bankress! More impt job than just holding on to a briefcase, no? =) I haven't watched the show before tho', it's good?

I love how little ones build up their own vocabulary by association =)
