Language Lesson

Seven-year-olds speak a much different language than adults. They use the same words, most of the time. But they use them with entirely different meanings.

In our house, Wednesday is take-out day. My daughter has chorus rehearsal from 6-7:30 which really messes with dinner time. So we don't bother. Her current choice is a ham sandwich from Subway. Just ham. No cheese. No vegies. Just ham on white - toasted.

The boy child is still set on McDonalds. Haven't convinced him to broaden his take-out horizon yet. Here is what he ordered today. "I want a Mighty Kids Meal. Double cheeseburger. No pickles. French fries. Powerade. And a boy toy. Make sure I get the boy toy."
