So entire....

I love when my kids learn a new word and then adopt it into their vocabulary in their own (misplaced) way/context.....

Grins, for example, uses "entire" in a whole new way. He is constantly saying "That is so entire cute!" or "You are so entire wonderful." Were he to add a '-ly' at the end, it MIGHT work (loosely) but it is SO cute to hear, and one of those little things I never want to forget.

Wiggles, on the other hand, adopts phrases she's heard in the appropriate context - though not always ones I appreciate her repeating. This week it is "What-da-eck is that?" I'm not sure whom she heard say "What the heck" but for some reason, she likes it, and continues to repeat it wherever/whenever it applies. Since I've asked her not to say it, she now often just says "I don't want to say 'what-da-eck'" over and over....

My children are so adorable! I am with them essentially 24/7, yet I still can't get enough (most of the time!) I am "SO entire" blessed!

uh...highly likely that Malia picked up that phrase from my child...since his mom seems to use that phrase! SO SORRY!! I hope no more of our bad habits rub off on your cute kids. And yes...you have DARLING kids!
