homeschoolmom Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Okay, my six year old son is into this phase where he says some weird thing and then says, "That's just an expression... it means___ " for example, he told me the other day that he was growing a baby brain... that's just an expression... it means he's extra smart. He's been doing this for a week. And I'm having trouble writing them all down.
homeschoolmom Posted January 14, 2005 Author Posted January 14, 2005 I think he just likes to make up weird things... Or maybe his trying to be as confusing to me as adult expressions are to him...
XIX Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Baby brain? I'm sorry but I hope there is nothing wrong with a male who realizes cute when he sees cute. :infant:
homeschoolmom Posted January 14, 2005 Author Posted January 14, 2005 He explained it as in addition to his own brain, he had a second 'baby' brain... thus making him extra smart... but don't worry... it's just an expression...
Balthazor Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 post more of his "expressions" please I enjoyed the first one very much.

crusader1234 Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 I understood the baby brain thing, but I think you should encourage this as its pretty innovative and combine that with homeschooling and youve got an entrepreneur in the making
homeschoolmom Posted January 15, 2005 Author Posted January 15, 2005 Oh, I love his expressions, too. And I highly encourage it. It gives me great insite into his thinking... There was one this morning that I didn't quite understand, I think it was something about going to Target today but we'd "have to see how the traffic goes" that's an expression that means how busy we get. It's just funny when he tells me that it's an expression. He sounds like a 35 year old in a 6 year old's body...
crusader1234 Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 Luckily for him, argyle and sweater vests are 'cool'
Honour Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 I'm sooooo gonna use this stuff... . . . .. ... Wait, I'm stealing lines from a 6 year old...thats odd!
homeschoolmom Posted January 15, 2005 Author Posted January 15, 2005 We went shopping for new church clothes and he wore his tie all afternoon... :ph34r: I think he even tried to wear it to bed until I mentioned that it might strangle him...
Honour Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 oh no Mommie instincts kicking in...I know its bad b/c recently I have gone from cringing when I see kids, to trying to stop myself from saying out loud "I WANT ONE!" My husbands scared.
