My girls make me giggle sometimes with some of the things that they say and do.
The other night, we’re having dinner with my in-laws. Bel was talking about males and females, but referring to them as boys and girls. So she started talking about her male teacher (she has two teachers due to job sharing), and said that her “boy” teacher was really excited about the hockey game. So my brother-in-law tried to teach her that she should use the word male instead of boy. He says to Bel, “Are you sure he’s a boy?” Bel looks at him and says “Yes, he’s a ‘boy’ just like you’re a ‘boy’” while using her fingers to show the quotation marks when she says “boy”. LOL..reminds me of Joey from Friends who didn’t know how and when to use the quotation marks!
And then yesterday in the car, a driver cut us off and almost hit us. Forgetting the kids were in the car, Wil yells “You Jackass!”. Giggles come from the back, and Ori goes “Daddy, you said Jackass”. Wil goes “Yes, I shouldn’t have said it…” and before he can finish his sentence, you hear a bit of a scuffle from the backseat and Ori says to Bel “Stop it you Jackass!”….sigh….let’s just say that two someones got a scolding…Wil told Ori to stop it, and I had to say something to Wil. LOL…I still giggle when I think back to that little voice…
