Bee-Bee-Doe, I see you!
To the rest of the world…Peek-A-Boo.
Do you ever find yourself *not* correcting your children on the correct way to say things because the way they *do* say things is gosh darn adorable? We do it all the time. Gillian has said "Bee-Bee-Doe" since she was wee tiny and I love it. At our house we have "refrigifators" "Indian and the Jones" (figure that one out – lol). We had "Barbiteeto" for a long time until one too many viewings of Star Wars self-corrected it to R2D2. I made lasagna last night and Gillian called it something like "bagongya." Melt.
The way I figure is the world will teach them many things. Some good. Some bad. They will have their whole lives to learn and grow. Do I have to be responsible for ALL their grammatical correctness?
Nope. It ain't gonna happen. In these parts, we'll say "Bee-Bee-Doe" forever.
She is adorable Bethany! I don’t correct my girls either. I know Mali had several cute things she said that I just let her say knowing she would grow out of them. When we say “blow a kiss” Eleri blows through her nose. I think it is so cute because she just thought of it herself so I don’t correct it. My in laws did the other day, sort of broke my heart!
totally agree. Thought about getting an audio recorder for just this reason, remembering these awesome moments.
This is so cute. I still say Wellychopper instead of helicopter now and I am 37!
Loving your beautiful photos as usual,
