So I decided today that words are pretty important in our family (at least to 70% of the family ... see if you can do the math - I counted JM for it being half important since he is still working on his words).
This morning as I told John Michael "gentle" (he was trying to tear apart the plastic drawers holding paper), he looked up and tried to repeat "gen le." Very charming!
Clara's contribution came at lunch when she was explaining how you eat a carrot. Thanks to the PBS show Sid the Science Kid, she likes to show you which teeth you use to eat it. Not your front teeth, but your back "massagers."
Gracie's word is one that she's been using for several months. Recently, she asked me why the Holy Cross "pogo" couldn't be on their pants or skirts instead of their shirts.
And finally, the bonus word courtesy of Clara. She got to choose a sticker at the dr's office today (just a check up for JM since his cold has gone on so long - he's fine) and decided to choose the one with the metal/robot looking guy. It was labeled "Iron Man."
I asked her, "Do you even know who Iron Man is?" (I highly doubt it, since I don't even have a clue)
"Yes! I know who Ironing Man is!"
And so he was the rest of the day - "Ironing Man."

LOL!! Who could that 20% be that doesn't rank words high on his/her list of importance??? Hmmm... hehehe
I love the little ones' words! Too cute! I wish I had an Ironing Man!!! I refuse to iron except for special occasions.
Actually, you should borrow Iron Man (DVD movie) from the library. It is based on a comic book - can you guess why we had to go see it at the theater last summer??? LOL! I really liked it! It was really good. Besides, Robert Downy, Jr. plays Iron Man - he is still cute in my book even all of these years after the brat pack movies!
