Who you callin’ poopyhead?
Posted on June 29, 2008 - Filed Under The Daily Doodle
Here’s a pretty good one, in the ‘kids say funny things’ vein:
The three of us were getting ready for dinner, to include Maggie climbing up into her height chair. On her way up, she told Erin she was a ‘poopyhead.’ Erin responded by asking her what she was. Maggie said, “I an angel!”
We have only one idea where Maggie might have picked up the poopyhead thing–it is Erin’s term of endearment for me. The problem is, she hasn’t called me that for a while, at least as best as we can remember. Then again, Maggie has been displaying a seemingly superhuman memory lately, so maybe we don’t remember Erin saying it but Maggie did. Anyway, ‘Angel’ is Erin’s nickname for Maggie, so it’s pretty funny how the little one put it all together.
And, yes, we told Maggie not to say ‘poopyhead’ at school because it would get her in trouble. It might not be all that bad though–kids at Maggie’s age are beginning to name-call, so Maggie will be out front of the trend and be the pacesetter. That’s a good character trait, no?
