What an awesome conversation. Very clever guy you have there! I find myself talking like my son, or at least thinking to myself the way he speaks. My sister's son couldn't quite get the sentence structure right when he didn't want to do something. Instead of saying, 'i don't want to go to school today' he would say 'it's never orange mittens', meaning, he did't want to put on his coat and mittens and go to school. If he doesn't want to eat a sandwich, he will say 'it's never sandwich'. I always thought that was really great problem solving, and we have all adopted that term in our own language, in my family.

Our kids "Get it." No doubt. Just have to coax their potential out of them. And there are lots of ways to do that. My Gianna's syntax has suddenly blossomed. She's using pronouns! No longer the "Bob Dole says" of her classroom I'm proud to say. Well, at least some of the time. I love progress. Keeps a mom going. I will think of your guy every time we cross the Bourne bridge onto the Cape. Cape Cod. Great joke!! Our kids “Get it.” No doubt. Just have to coax their potential out of them.

Sometimes the fact that they think it's funny is way funnier than the joke itself. You gotta love it. Kid humor. Sometimes the fact that they think it’s funny is way funnier than the joke itself.

I do this with my daughter and when we lived in Jersey I had some Russian friends and would talk with their accents without knowing it. It is interesting how language development varies from child to child. I waited a long time before correcting Maizie's speech too. I did not want to discourage her. She used to be very sensitive to how she talked. I know what you mean about picking up their language.

Thats great! I find that I pick up Connor's language and repeat it even when he is "over it." For exaple he use to say "Su-per-per man." He says it normaly now and I still say "Su-per-per man." only to be scolded by my daughter. HAHA! Thats great!
