My mother and I took Katie and Jon out to do some shopping this morning. We happen to be out around lunch time, and I was getting quite hungry as were the kids. So we went to the McDonald's drive-thru to fix our dilemma. Now other than the fact that I try not to buy fast food too often, this event really wouldn't be worth writing about if not for my darling daughter and her made-up words. See when ever she can't remember the name of something, or if she can't think of a way to describe something, she makes up a new word or words to use in its place. Now, this may be common place for 5 year olds, but Eddie never did it, so it fascinates me.
Back to this morning...
Because I had a coupon, I bought her a new southern style chicken biscuit (Jon and I had one too). She loved the biscuit, but told me that the chicken was "too spicy", that it was "pig-treeish", and that she didn't want to eat it, but thought that Jon or I should. Since Jon and I had already eaten ours (being that, pig-treeish things don't really bother us) Katie gave it to Eddie when we got home. Eddie loved it.

Too funny! Gwen adds "ish" to the end of lots of words too. My favorite is when she is trying to describe a caucasian person and tells me their skin is sort of "pale-ish".
