Sofia talks a blue streak. The only problem is, her annunciation is not spectacular. As a result, the same sounding word could mean 3 or 4 different things. I usually have to check to see what she's looking at or pointing to to figure it out completely. Take the following words as example:
1. Da-dee
a. Daddy, as in Scott
b. Doggie, as in Cooper, dogs in books, dogs on our walk, etc.
c. Any random man. All are Daddies.
d. Dirty. As in my hands where I colored myself.
e. Pen. Because I make my hands dirty when I color with pen. All pens in our house are
now known as dirties.
f. Dolly.
2. Boy
a. Boy, as in Reed. This is what he is called now. Fif has changed his name.
b. Boy. All boys in public are pointed out as Boy. Unless of course there is more than
one, then the plural of boy is boyo, boyo, boyo, boyo.
c. Girl. All girls are also boys. This pisses off pretty much every 3 year old girl we come in
contact with.
d. Boogie. This one is said like this: Boy! Da-dee! (sign language for help), meaning - My
boogies are getting out of control and I'm now getting dangerously dirty. Do
something about this!
3. Huht
a. Hurt. As in I am hurt from where Boy hit me over the head with a Da-dee (dolly).
b. Heart. As in what all Valentine balloons were shaped like, which made shopping a
challenge. Huht! Ba-oon!
Yes, that's a heart balloon.
Huht!
Yes, that's another heart balloon.
Huht!
And so on, and so forth...
