As kids grow, their vocabulary changes and cute little toddlerisms give way to adult language. I do realize I wouldn't want to hear a 40 year old woman saying she would like a doc doc, but it's always a little sad when little people grow out of those cute little words they hear.
LK: I would like a doc doc please.
me: OK. You and I will both get doc docs.
LK: Mommmmm, I SAID I would like a HHHHHot Doggg.
me: Ohhh, this makes me sad - I'm going to miss the doc docs.
LK: Mommmmm, you MEAN, HHHHot Doggggsss.
me: No, I'm going to miss you saying doc doc!
LK: You mean HHHHot Doggg.
me: Yep - that's just what I mean.
The only hope for the future is that now we get into mixed up sayings (oh yeah, that's me), goofed up song lyrics and the rest of that fun stuff. I was recently reminded of M at a similar age singing "He flies through the air with the greatest dummies. Sharing your man on the flying trapeze." Very comforting that the humor does not end.
But I really am going to miss the doc docs.

A friend once wondered why my sister has a really great blog and I didn't, since I'm the geek who works in IT. Yeah, well she's the better writer. But he made me think, so here it is. Just remember, you get what you pay for.
