Why I Need a Toddler-English Dictionary
Me (to my 3-year-old daughter): What do you want for supper, honey?
Her: Hosanna, Mommy.
Me: Hosanna?
Her: (bursts into singing the church hymn “Hosanna in the Highest”)
Me: (frantically going through what possible word combination could rhyme with Hosanna) Are you sure that’s what you want?
Son (interrupting): She means lasagne, Mom.
Me (to daughter): You want lasagne?
Her: Yes. Hosanna.
She is now up in her bed singing the Barney song at the top of her lungs instead of sleeping. Ah, motherhood.
