YOU HAVE TO LAUGH DON'T YOU?



My daughter passed on this little story to me and I had to share it even if it's one against me.  Or is it? No, I don't think it really is.  I think it is hilarious and it's always nice to be thought of in every way.

I am told that my 5-year-old great-granddaughter (my daughter's granddaughter) was chatting to her mother and used the word "vintage" when telling her about something.

This seemed quite a big word for a 5-year-old so her mum asked her if she knew what the word meant.

"Oh, yes!" replied g.granddaughter of mine, "It means something that's old.  Like Mimsie."

  7. 5 year olds are so much smarter than I was at that age. Heck, they're smarter than I am now.

  8. You could be right on that one River. Her grandma (my daughter) also told me when speaking of her 15 month old little sister Immy said "AJ is being quite mischievous today". Nice to see young ones using good language and hope she keeps it up as some of the young people of today don't seem to know what grammar and pronunciation is, let along spelling.
