Ah, kids. Yours, other people's, they come up with some doozies. Sometimes it's a word out of context, or making use of their name in a creative way.
And other times, they speak a phrase that can be bursting with meaning:
Holding my new bra my daughter said,"You got new boobies, Mommy?" Jadyn, 3
Now I'm not saying that Jaydn's mommy actually has new boobies, or even that she ever had new boobies. But somewhere Jaydn got the idea that a woman can, in fact, get new boobies. Where did Jaydn get such an idea? Has Jaydn been accompanying daddy to lunch at Hooters? (Note: I have no idea who Jaydn or his parents are, the condition of the boobies of anyone in the family or their friends, and whether or not Daddy eats lunch at the mammary mecca that is Hooters.) If nothing else, the kid has a head start on a truly male vocabulary.
