Toddlers are good to have around for Linguistic Laughs. Unforunately I don't have exactly 5 from this week; so I'm going to pretend that 1+1+1=5 and go with flow anyway.
Really Wretched Rhyming:
My 3 year old dropped a raisin on my clean kitchen floor. He still wanted to eat it so he blew on it and then asked, "Are there any worms on it?"
Worms/germs- is there a difference?
Mispronunciations:
At a friend's house my 3 year old convinced the friend's father to put in a dvd. As the Dad was setting up the movie my 3 year old asked, "How many commodes do you have?"
At a friend's house my 3 year old convinced the friend's father to put in a dvd. As the Dad was setting up the movie my 3 year old asked, "How many commodes do you have?"
The father answered the apparent non sequitor with, "Um... 3."
My 3 year old responded, "My dad has 3 commodes too. My dad uses his commodes a Lot."
Commodes/remotes- important to enunciate clearly.
Misunderstood Concepts:
My 2 year old was embroiled in a heated battle of ownership over a toy car that big brother had rightful possession of. As I scooped 2 year old up and away I reminded him, "Your brother had it first."
To which, 2 year old belted out defiantly, "No, I had it first, I had it tomorrow morning!"
Unequivocal proof... of nothing.
Hop over to The Girl Next Door Grows Up for some more Feel Good Friday.

Thanks for the chuckle!
For years C referred to them as "comote retrols". We still use the term.
One of our family mispronunciations that has stuck is pukers(computer). This came from PM very early on asking "can I play on the puker?"
I love it!!
My 2 year old talk way too clearly. It must be because of her older sister and we always correct her.
I have actually stopped correcting her because it is sooooo cute what they say and it ends so fast!
She calls the living room the Nie Noom and I just love that.
Priceless!
