Jan. 22, 2008 - Cute Associations

Ok, so I realize that it’s been a long time since I’ve updated this blog, but then again, the holidays were as crazy as ever and life hasn’t really slowed down much since! I started this blog because I wanted to remember all the funny things my kids say before they slip into the abyss of my mind, and I have had loads of opportunities to do so, but today provided me with one that I just can’t pass by. 

I was helping Quinn with his spelling lesson this morning as he was having a little trouble finding the spelling word that went with the group “pretty, adorable, ___________”.  I made sure that he understood what kind of word he was looking for and then we just went from the top of the list to the bottom.

#1:  Pretty, adorable, rule?         Quinn:  No
#2:  Pretty, adorable, use?          Quinn:  No
#3:  Pretty, adorable, mule?       Quinn:  Nope

Now this pattern continued on all the way to number 9.

#9:  Pretty, adorable, you?              Quinn:  YES!  (Said with adorably cute bright eyes and a huge smile on his face!)

As true as Quinn’s answer was, the real answer was number 10:  cute. 

Yep, CUTE!  Or at least I thought so…………..
