Erin had a difficult time a few letters....and she actually changed OUR vocabulary.....

Because it is SO much cuter to say "glubs" than "gloves"......and "punking" rather than "pumpkin"......

Oh yes, Bek had a few of those. Ollycopters (helicopters) and oticots (apricots), and onninges (oranges), and frengly (friendly). We still use frengly today

Thank you for making me smile with all the cute stories. I have 14 godchildren and when I am awake I am sure I will be back to tell some of the things they said.

LOL too cute! LOL Ollycopters reminded me of "Olly" for my son's first favorite teething toy dolly (a little brightly colored clown)... and he couldn't say cigarette..it was goo-gret ...and Grump-pa for his favorite Grandpa... bubbies for bubble bath... and Wennie Skins for his thermal Pjs. Grump-pa still craves his goo-grets and we all still use our warm Wennie Skins...and my puppy knows his command for "bubbies" and sulks over to our tub with his cute pout.

This morning, I called my 'baby' ~ she's 22, but she will always be my baby ~ and woke her up.

She took us both back 20 years, when she answered the phone, "Hi, Mommy."

It made my day......
