July 18, 2012: Kids say...Melanie'isms

Setup: We're going for our evening walk/bike ride. Melanie (5 - and without training wheels, btw) stops at the corner as instructed.

<A car comes to the intersection and turns, without a signal.>
Melanie [indignant]: That car didn't use it's turning whistle.

I share this story mostly to capture the Melanie-ism "Turning whistle." Another one I didn't witness first-hand, and thus, don't have an accurate transcript for, is "Northern Python" -- that is the type of fish Uncle Dan was trying to catch up at Brookside. :)
