It is in ours, if the kids have called something by a truly original name, that item is forever labled by the new name.

For instance: Merry Christmas= My cousin would say Carry Mistress when she was little, so within the family, that has been our Christmas greeting for years.

My grandpa bought a new truck when my brother was about 3, and the adults were all talking about the "new" truck. My brother started talking about the "new", so until that truck died many years later, it was called the "new".

I used to call a suitcase, a cuit-sake, and I think my dad still calls it that from time to time.

And so on!

My word like that was... under brella... Still call it that to this day...

My son had one word we never figured out but it was so exciting to him and he would point at something and with all the excitement he could muster say... Carbidit!!!! Still bugs me to this day that I dont know what that stinkin word means!

Then Zoey the middle child had a horrible speech impediment. she couldnt say her Ls or Rs so it was all a Y... she would say mommy can I sit or lay on your Yap... its still mommys Yap and at 13 she still yoves to yay or sit on mommys yap! LOL

Then my youngest... She would get so frustrated if someone didnt answer her the first time she would say something and she would just yell... Oh NETHERMIND!!!! And if ELLYBODY didnt hear her she would tell ELLYBODY again!! Those were her 2 cute words and she still says them! LOL

Okay...this joke's on me, but its funny anyway...I just had a hilarious exchange with my daughter...(10 year old Sarah). It went like this:

Sarah: "Mama, Lindsey said her Mom is getting her a razor."
Me: "Well, you don't need a razor."
*silence*
Me: (explaining further) "You don't have any hair.
Sarah: (slightly incredulous) "Hair? What do you mean hair?"
Me: "You don't have hardly any hair on your legs."
Sarah: (VERY incredulous look) *bursts out laughing* "Mama!!!!!" (Shrieks of laughter AT clueless me.) "She's getting a Razor PHONE!!!!!"
Me: Laughter. (What else can I do? LOL!!!!)

I guess it never occurred to me that anyone would buy their 10 year old a Razor phone!

My daughter mangled that one when she was about 11.

We were driving down the road in our 4x4 truck, and as we passed a convertible she looked down at the occupants and said, "Mom, that girl has a biniki on."

LOL that is cute. Kids can forever change words.

when Elaine was just a toddler, she saw a man who she obviously thought was very ugly.. she said.. "whew, that man is LUGLY" it was just the way she said it stuck with us....then if she didn't like her hair for church, she would stand before the mirror crying "but I'm lugly" Some 15 years later, I get some odd looks when I still refer to the word "ugly" as lugly... I usually have to explain that is how our family now says it.

It wasn't too long ago that my 5 year old was being tormented by his older brothers. He became so irritated. He was so mad that he yelled at them and said, " YOU AIN'T NOTHING BUT A DEMOCRAT" ....... the funny thing was that, instead of laughing, my other boys became extremely defensive and argued with him!!!! To be called a democrat is to be called a bad name! LOL

my daughter is 6, from a baby up, when its time to go to sleep we rub her eyelids. we done this when she was newborn, because she never wanted to close her eyes to sleep. Now when she is sleepy she gets on her daddy's lap and asks him to rub her "eyecaps" so she can go to sleep. She also says funny words, that we repeat. temperature is tentcheper, living room is libener, our explorer is the explorla. Kids say the funniest things.

When we adopted our oldest son he was 3 years old. Not long after he got here he kept asking us to get him something from the alligator. We could not figure out what he was talking about until he showed us. His word for refrigerator was alligator. We still call it that sometimes.

And we always call seagulls "parking lot birds" because that's what Justin called them when he was little.

1. My great-niece is 2 and she pronounces her "f's" as "p's". So at the table she says "thank you Lord por our pood".

2. I have a 6 year old cousin and one Sunday after church she was at my parents house. She asked my dad why he wasn't at church because Jesus really needed him there.

She also used to say "flowder" instead of "flower" when she was little (about 2). We still say that.

*Jeffrey in church this morning:

Jeff tried to get him to stay awake during service, and Jeffrey said, "But Daddy, I just can't handle it." (Who can argue with that?) He slept through church!

*Jeffrey, after lunch, surveying his bounty of candy filled Easter eggs: "Man, I could live on this stuff, I could!"

When My Second Son Was 5 Or Six Years Old, He Wanted To Be In The Bed With His Parents, As Kids This Age Normally Do. So When My Husband Told Him He Was Old Enough To Sleep Alone He Ramarked.. " So Why Are You Still Sleeping With Mommy".

This is for Foreverblessed...

When my brother, Rob, was 4 or 5, our mom said, "Rob, your grammar is terrible!!"

Looking quite upset, and with trembling lips, he softly relpied, "No her isn't!!"

Rob also told my mom and dad when he was about 8 yrs. old that he didn't want to be a democrat or republican...he wanted to be a hypocrite!!
