Things the kids say.


When we got home from grocery shopping today I got Dan to help me demonstrate to Gabe how to play Catch Phrase, one of my all-time favorite board games.



He did pretty well for a first try, and I asked him if he'd like to play it sometime.  He said, "Yeah, that would be fun to play sometime if the lights go out!"  



So, I guess my game would be fun to play, but only in an entertainment emergency if video games were unavailable ...



Headed up to Granny and Gramps' ... Gabe's always the last one in the car since he has to pack so many toys.



And now for another lesson in Max-ese.  Here are some homophones:

"Dee" = "Gabe" or "teeth"
"Kak kak" = "duck" or "frog"
"Ju" = "shoe" or "juice"
"Dut" = "dirt" or "shirt"
"Sssss" = "snake" or "lizard"
"Dadoo" = "tractor" or "dipey-doo"



Actual meaning must be deduced with context clues.



Today Brian and Maya were discussing the five senses.  Maya knew that God gaves us eyes so we can see, ears so we can hear, a nose so we can smell, a tongue so we can taste ...  When Brian asked, "Why did he give us hands?"  Maya replied, "So we can pull up our underwear."



Five more nights till Christmas Eve.  
Peace to all.
Goodnight.
