The joy of a snuggle + funny

Molly is not a super affectionate kid. I think she's learning, simply because Bryan and I are overly affectionate with her to make up for it. It doesn't bother me. I think it's fine but it makes her spontaneous hugs that much more sweet since she doesn't give them out to just anyone. Amos, on the other hand, seems to be a natural born cuddler. All you have to do is sit down on the floor and within minutes he crawls over to lay on your legs, or even better, put his cheek up to yours and talk (ahhhhh! da-da-da-da!). So sweet. These little differences are always so interesting to me.

Molly gets the funny for the day:
We have a little wooden helicopter that she was playing with at church. She held it up to me and said, "hepticopacopata-hangaber." I was like, "what??" And she totally repeated it, thinking she was saying 'helicopter'. I guess this goes along with her other words that only I can understand, including:

nyope=milk
poon=spoon
pamepames=Mary Poppins
mote=more
deetyou=thank you
soo-see-nursery
soogerdown=a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

Hangaber? That's almost what me & my sister used to call a hamberger. I still remember it. We actually said, "Hanggamer". It's funny the words little kids come up with. I remember I also used to say "brekets", instead of "breakfast". Lol. So cute. Out of the mouths of babes.
