I just spent a few minutes this morning watching TV with Ethan this. It's our cuddle time. I love it....I think he just accommodates me though. But that is okay, I am just using him. He makes me feel warm and cuddly and happy. But anyway!
There is a little show that comes on between shows on Nick Jr. It has a moose named....um....Moose and his friend a bird....called Zee (you probably thought I was going to say bird huh).
So Moose talks and Zee doesn't talk. Kinda like the Penn and Teller of children's television programming but without bad words. So my point...I do have one. He was singing this song this morning about Fall. He sings about how he is falling for Fall (cute huh). The first few times I heard it, I didn't notice this....I just thought it was charming...but the next time I heard it, I realized that Moose (he's the moose if you have already forgotten) used the word prevaricating!
Now, I am sure all you smarties out there already know what that word means. And honestly, the only reason I know the meaning of that word is because of my Dad. My first thought was "why would they use such big words on nickjr....kids aren't going to understand it." (I really thought that). Then I realized that they are teaching my kid big words!! I know..go figure!!!
For those of you that don't know what prevaricating is...it means "lying". Seriously, I am not prevaricating!
So now that I have that out of my brain, I can get back to work. I am in the process of cleaning out the toy box. I think Ethan is planning an overthrow of the Parental Dictatorship...he has been hiding Nerf darts in the bottom of his toy basket. I know, I saw them. He will have some explaining to do when he gets up from his morning nap!
Yeah, so that is what I was thinking today and wanted to share it. I feel better now.
