WordPlay with Nikolai

1) N was eating breakfast on Sunday and asked me, "Mom, where is the mint in sacrament?"

2) N was sitting on the potty a couple days ago, pointed to the potty and asked, "Mom, why is this a train?" I was confused and didn't quite know what to say. I told him that it wasn't a train and asked why he thought it was. He didn't answer my question but finally after another minute or two deep in thought he says, "Mom, but what is potty training?"

3) (not wordplay but still cute). N has discovered that he loves t-ball. We were outside watching him hit the ball today - he turns to us after one hit and yells, "Mom, I'm AMAZING!" Glad to know he doesn't suffer in the self confidence department.

And here is one cute picture for you cause what's a post without a cute pic?

Isn't it funny how thier little minds try to connect things? I remember as a child trying to figure out for years where people "buried" their testimonies.

Try teaching him this one:

"Hail to the victors . . ."

Get him ready for UofM v. UofU

Our language is a funny thing. It'll be fun to see how his journey through the English language unfolds.
