And then one day
“yub-yub” or “pla-ba” becomes “peanut butter”
“PT” becomes “TV”
“spa-ba-dee-dee” becomes “Sponge Bob Square Pants” (yeah, I know, go figure!)
“Ju-ju” becomes “Julie”
“kee-kee-kie” becomes “Lizzy McQuire” (she’s got older sisters!)
And somewhere along the line you realize your three year old is growing up. You expect it, even welcome it, with the first two. But with the third and last, for some reason, you just want to hang onto it a little longer.
But then today when she heard the radio announcer say “House of Commons” she said “House of GUM? How could anybody do THAT?” So all is not lost 🙂
