You Want Meepballs With That?

I wasn't feeling well last night, so my husband offered to get some take-out for dinner. He then asked our five year old son what he wanted to eat.

Our son replied, "Pasketti."

Then he corrected himself and said, "No, no, not pasketti. Sasketti."

And again, "No! Not sasketti. I want Spapetti."

We were just sitting there, waiting for him to come up with the right word, when he walked over to my husband and said, "Dad, I want chicken".

Oh how cute! Our oldest used to say 'spita' instead of 'pasta'. We finally made up a fun little song with her ducky puppet to remind her how to pronounce it correctly. We still call the puppet Pasta Duck. :)

That is adorable! I love a good early morning chuckle.
My daughter can't say it either so she calls it noodles with red salsa. :-)

I love it when little kids say funny stuff...and of course the family picks it up and uses it for years. We still call wallets "walnuts" from my little brother who said it, like, 28 years ago!
My favorite of my nephew now is "scartled" (scared/startled). I think I will use that forever.
