Collin and Mary like to spell things when they are emphasizing a point. Jack likes to do the same... even though he doesn't know how to spell. For example:
Jack: (yelling) I AM BORED!
Mom: Well....
Jack: C-E-K !
Mom: (laughing) What?
Jack: (still yelling) WHAT DOES C-E-K MEAN?
Mom: (still laughing)
Jack: C-E-K MEANS I'M BORED!
Mom: (I can't do anything but laugh)
Jack: (in a normal voice) A-O-A-A-K means I am bored, OK?
Mom: (trying not to laugh) OK.
Jack: That means I want to play with some of my friends. OK? OK? OK?
Mom: OK!
I love that! Sounds like something my kiddos would say also :)
ReplyDeleteI wish Jack lived closer to us, as Josh tells me he's bored too!
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty funny. My little brother used to think that if Y E S spelled "yes" (as I told him daily) then N E S must spell "no." Poor little guys. It's hard being the youngest.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny! My 4 yr old says "N.O. THAT MEANS NO!" My kids have been bored this week a lot because I got sick.
ReplyDeleteHow cute!
ReplyDeleteExtra hug!
That is so funny. Hey, at least he's spelling....or at least trying. What a hoot!
ReplyDeleteone of my kids said, 'i'm bored.' i said, 'good. just sit there and think.'
