Out of the Mouths of Babes

The husband is a huge Beatles fan. We have a coffee table book about them and it was displayed prominently -- well, on the coffee table. Big Daddy used to point to each of the photos and say, "Who is that?"

The baby's answers were: John, Paul, George ... and Bingo. (He liked that song, B, I, N, G, O and Bingo was his name-O.)

About the same year, we were stuck in heavy traffic. The baby was safely strapped in his car seat, chewing on his Cheerios. Someone cut Big Daddy off and he muttered and slapped the steering wheel.

The baby said, "Yeah, what the buck are you doing?"

Too funny! Thank heavens he had a slight speech impediment. Our oldest use to call grapes "boops". Love those cute little words children use! Pammie

Sarah's boys have a book called John, Paul, George and BEN. It's about the declaration of independence - but when we were reading it I took the opportunity to tell them about the other guys.

This reminds me of when you were about 2 yrs. old and your version of Rock-A-Bye Baby was "Hocker bye baby, in the hee hop."
Love,
Mom
