that's what he said...

Jabber is playing on the living room floor, while D. and I eat our dinner at the table.

J (muttering to himself): YES! My Lego pilot is sitting in his Calkpit. COCKpit. COCK. PIT. (to me) MOM! Isn't this word really hard to pronounce? COCK. PIT. COCKPIT.

me (eyes locked on D's, dying a little): Yes, honey.

J: COCK. PIT. COCK. PIT.

me (dies some more)

J: Hey! That's a compound word, isn't it? PIT, like my armpit. and COCK. Whatever that is. COCK. What's a COCK, Mom? COCKCOCKCOCK.

So funny! Gotta love those compound words. I still remember my parents explaining to me that foreplay was not an appropriate choice for my 'list five compound words' HW assignment.

Kristan, it's hilarious. Laughing at the things they say is like the best reason I can think of for having kids.

Carrie, omg foreplay! Where did that word come from??? LOL!

Yeah, they must have wanted to laugh SO BADLY! It was during the winter Olympics, and I had heard the announcers talking about forerunners on the ski course. I thought that foreplay must mean doing stretches to get ready to play tag or something. Turns out...not so much!
