For the past several weeks our little Aine has been using a new word combo that gets us all laughing. She simply takes the three little letters "ish" and puts them at the end of everything that she wants/doesn't want. It is common to hear, "mom, I am feeling snackish" or "Dad, I am not feeling very nappish right now." She does this with such fitting, comical expressions that you really cannot help but laugh. If she wants to watch a movie she is feeling "movieish," craving brownies, "brownieish," doesn't want to eat dinner, then she isn't feeling very "pizzaish" or what ever it is we are eating, and so on. When we ask her to go on the potty she says, "I am not feeling very poopish though mommy." Fortunately she oftentimes feels "peeish" so we all hope the "poopish" feelings begin to develop because none of us ever feel very "diaperish." She has begun to get more specific in her "ishisms," the other day she mentioned that not only was she feeling "movieish" but she was really feeling "Fairytopiaish." So I asked, "You want to watch Fairytopia?" "Yes mommy, I am very fairytopiaish right now." Now, we are not sure where she got this. I guess am glad she is in touch with her feelings. It is really cute, with the tone and head nod, and when she uses it on mom, dad, Karl, or Abby - she may not get what she wants but she certainly gets a laugh out of all of us. You should try it once in awhile - it is silly and will make you smile, "Honey, can I have all the credit cards, I am feeling very shopish right now..." or "Sweetie, I need to watch the game and not do anything else all day because I am feeling very relaxish..." Again - may not work but guarantees a couple smiles.
