A is for aardvark

Punkin is truly a toddler. in the past month, one of his favorite requests has become “Again.” i had read about this desire for repetition, but it honestly snuck up on me. during a diaper change the day he turned 21-months-old, i sang “Happy Birthday” to him. (it really was “Happy Year and Nine Months Birthday” and “Happy One and ¾ Birthday”) i sang both versions several times because as soon as i finished, he asked, “Again?”

this weekend, el Jefe’ read/sang the “I’m a Little Teapot” book no less than three times in one day. i was blessed with “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish” twice in one sitting. whereas i can recite the Dr. Seuss “ABC Book” in my sleep, i don’t quite have “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish” completely committed to memory (ingrained in my skull). and twice, el Jefe’ took the Punkin through his “A is for Apple” slide book.

Punkin has quite the vocabulary, although he occasionally mispronounces words. he used to ask for his woobie as “Ah-yee” but now he calls it his woobie. he used to know the word for spoon, but lately he has reverted to something closer to a form of balloon. he has words for octopus (“Oct-ee-pah”) and bicycle (“By-clah”). he really does very well at the beginning and end of the “A is for Apple” book. according to the book, “F” is for fox. twice, very clearly, Punkin said “F” is for fuck (pronounced “Fock” in Punkin language). i laughed until tears streamed down my face.

in honor of the letter “F”, these are just a couple of my selections from the Politically Incorrect Alphabet. you’ll have to check out what Mark Jones has chosen for the letter “F”.
"A" is for Arab, "B" is for Beer , "C" is for Cigarettes
