Can I be a tennis man? (Can I wear my tennis shoes?)
I have something in my eye and it is an eyelash so I got it out with this baseball.
Miss Mommy, can you do me a favorite?

The neighbors' chickens were squawking loudly. I had just fed our pets and Peter told me the chickens were hungry too.
"What will the chickens eat?"
"Mmm...probably the Barbary sheep. Can you please throw the Barbary sheep to the chickens over the fence?"
Some of my current favorite phrases:
- Hit ball (hitting a ball with any stick-like object)
- Bat ball (baseball)
- Racer car
- Pajammies
- Picnic for my teeth (toothpick)
- Donald Duck's (McDonald's)
- Snow Flakes (Frosted Flakes)
We have tried to change our vocabulary to reflect that the Church is the people and the church building is just where we meet. When we leave our house to go just about anywhere, we drive past the church property. It's now become somewhat of an ordeal:
Hi church building! Hi youf center! Hi ministry center! Can you say bye church building, bye youf center, see you later ministry center? Mommy!! You didn't say bye church building, bye youf center, see you next time ministry center!!!
(We're long past the church building at this point and I have to reassure him that I'll say all the right things on the way home.)
When I tried to dress him in a button-up shirt on a Wednesday:
I can't wear that! That's my church building shirt!
Come here, Lukers, I want to hold you and kiss you because you are my sweet boy.

Do you need to go potty?
No, I don't. I just went a few weeks ago.
