Are my kids weird?
Do your preschool age kids use amusingly complex vocabulary words? J has been full of them this week. She cracks me up. She just shouted, "B you are making this too challenging for me" while they were playing Super Smash Bros on the Wii. Yesterday I heard her say, "I would really appreciate it if there was a light in this pantry." A couple of nights ago, she and B were talking during dinner and she said, "Don't bring up that situation again!" In the car this week I heard her tell B, "not necessarily B, NOT NECESSARILY!" What amuses me most about the words she uses, is the ways she always seems to use them in the appropriate context. It's fascinating how language develops in children. I won't even get started on the phrases B uses. She's got a million. I would say that I have no idea where they get this from, but Daniel accused me of OVER-using the word nefarious last week. Well, excuse me...sometimes it is a very useful word, even if it is a bit dramatic.

Mine all amazed me with large words that seemed to come from out in left field at times. It is fascinating to thing about language development.
