Olivia's "Mouse"
Olivia is a darling little girl... spunky and stubborn, but still darling. One of the "ahhhh shucks" things that she does is mispronounce words in memorable ways; such as when she used to call me "Dan" or how she says "sunkeen" instead of "something". Lately, I have been hijacking the mispronounced words myself and using them in everyday conversation... in good fun mind you, never to tease. Today at the breakfast table:

"Olivia, stop playing at the table. Take sunkeen off your plate and put it in your mouse."

At which point, Berkeley and Eliana look at me and start to laugh while I give everyone a wink.

Olivia's most noticable mispronunciation lately has been her very cute predisposition to pronounce "mouth" as "mouse". Such as:

"Take a bite Olivia."
"But Dad, I still have sunkeen in my mouse!"

or:

"Come over here and let Daddy give you a kiss."
"Okay Daddy, but kiss me on my cheek not on my mouse."

So much fun.
