Today in the car, my 7+ yr old says out of nowhere "Jujubees! Hey mom, in Avatar, there's this guy who says 'Run or that blue monster will eat your'" - he pauses, looks at me quizzically and asks (with true innocence) "Am I allowed to say God Damn?".
Me (with my matter-of-fact mom tone) "No. You aren't".
Jack "Okay - then he says 'Run or that blue monster will eat your blah, blah jujubees!" then cracks up laughing "Isn't that a great word mom? Jujubees!"
I'm not sure if I want to know all of the other thoughts rolling around in his head!

Funny Kid... I saw Avatar and I don't remember that scene. LOL its amazing what kids remember. I have a Jack too. Love that name.
ReplyDeleteYeah - we thought we were being original that year when we named him Jack (he is a January baby) - it was the third most popular name for boys by the end of the year. I'm with you - I don't remember that scene in Avatar either! Whew - I thought I must have blocked it or something :)
ReplyDeleteOh so cute! Innocence is so precious! Thats so great you are recording all these memories on your blog-someday, years from now, this blog will be priceless!
