Kids Say The Darndest Things !

Saw this in the newspaper today - in a column titled "Apologies to Art Linkletter" ... Just had to share !!

"When my daughter was 4, she would often help feed her baby brother. With the first spoonful, she would cheerfully say. "Bone up to eat!"

After many feedings and many discreet chuckles on my part, I finally decided to gently correct her one day and said, "Honey, it's actually "bon appetit'"

She scowled and stubbornly insisted: "No it's not! It's 'Bone up to eat!' I said: "No, really. It's 'bon appetit.' It's French."

She pauses and then declared, "Well, I'm saying it in ENGLISH!""

    Very cute.

    Reminds me of a little guy I know who calls the 4Runner the 4 Hunter and the Acura the Acrobat.
