Wait, is that the plural of Kleenex? Kleenexs? Kleeni? Well, whatever.<br /><br />What I love most about the aunt/aren't thing is that both words have to be pronounced with an accent - aunt has to be "awnt" as opposed to "ant" and then aren't is "awnt" too. Jude is amazingly good at translating Grandma's New York accent, he thinks it's hysterical.gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00952840544630534206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-52989906574698033752010-06-28T12:15:25.296+10:002010-06-28T12:15:25.296+10:00Cuteness, cuteness, cuteness, OMG.

My northern-transplant friend was marked off in grade school for mispelling the word "pirate," which she wrote as "parrot" ... the word she THOUGHT her very southern teacher was pronouncing.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06331709146988974058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-944451863636999972010-06-25T06:40:16.541+10:002010-06-25T06:40:16.541+10:00You rocked my world with that homophone thing.

It's cause the "r"'s aren't pronounced, and "aunt" is said like "ahhnt".<br /><br />Jules--don't worry, I've got loads more where that came from.

And right now I am letting Matthew have a snack out of a bowl on the kitchen floor. Why use a high chair? It will just end up on the floor anyway, but I would have wasted valuable minutes putting him in & getting him out :).The Mommy Blawgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15089652068368856212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-71767743207636004652010-06-22T23:45:24.925+10:002010-06-22T23:45:24.925+10:00I think a mom does what she has to do!
