Jesse is into trying out new words and expressions. It’s quite amusing. Just in the past 24 hours, here are a few he’s
tackled.
PERSONALITY
“Janna is a personality, mom”
After explaining that she is a person with a personality,
and talking about different personalities, I asked Jesse what sort of
personality Janna and he have.
“Janna has a very...white...personality. I have a very...spongebob personality”
DISGUSTING
At dinner time, Jesse says, “Mom, this is willy disgusting.”
He is happily eating his dinner with little complaint and so
I ask him what is disgusting
“The pasta is willy disgusting.”
Dave tells Jesse it’s not nice to comment on mom’s cooking
that way, and I ask him if he knows what disgusting means?
“Ummm.... I don’t.
What does disgusting mean?”
FRUSTRATED
We are driving home from church and Dave and I are having a
pleasant conversation up front in the van.
Jesse pipes us with:
“Mom... that just makes me willy frustrated”
I ask him what is making him frustrated
“Your talking is just making me willy frustrated”
I ask him if he knows what frustrated means, and he answers
very seriously, “Yes. I DO.” Followed by dead silence and a stare out his side window as if the conversation is finished.
Taken aback, Dave and I both burst into laughter not sure
how to respond, and a minute later Jesse asks, “Mom. What DOES frustrated mean?”
Jesse is playing with a paper airplane Dave made him on the
way to school. He is going on and on
about it, and I tell him it’s really nice, and maybe we can play with it together
after school?
“No mom. It’s just a man
thing. Right. Daddy said it’s man stuff.”
