Danish Immersion Camp!

Linden is so funny. He is ALWAYS listening. To those of you who have almost 2 year olds...they will always be listening. At 2 years old, Linden walked into the TV room and said, "TVtropolis". Only a short time after that we may or may not have been watching Seinfeld and he came in and shouted, "George!!" I couldn't believe it. Whenever we watch tv that isn't a cartoon, Linden usually isn't paying attention, he's off in the corner playing with toys or something. But I guess he's still got his ears on.

Lately a famous line of his is, said after we ask him to do something, "sorry, mom, I just am playing with my toys." Just yesterday Mike asked me to help him with something, oh ya......it was changing a poopy diaper.....ha.....and I said, "sorry, I just have to go to the bathroom first." huh. Guess I know where he's picking up his lines from. It's a lot more cute coming from a child.

The last, and quite possibly the best one liner of Linden's...he walked into the living room a couple of days ago with a very serious face and looked right at me and said with a very serious voice, "DANISH IMMERSION CAMP." Said with such authority and passion I thought my son had been turned into an officer of less desirable sorts. Danish Immersion Camp? that just sounds scary to me. But don't worry, he didn't say danish concentration camp. It's an immersion camp. I guess if you have to learn a language it'd be fun to do it camp style. I have to credit Veggie Tales for this one. I'm pretty sure that's where it came from, cause that's where he's been saying a bunch of other lines from lately. I love it. I love that a 2 year old can think it's fun to learn how to say something and then just say it with no worries in the world.

Ok, one more. Linden has quite a few bruises on his legs right now from running in the house and bashing into things. I guess his legs resemble that of any normal boy child. Anyways, he pointed to the one on his knee and said, "this one's my beach." Only 'beach' didn't sound like beach, it sounded like the term we use for female dogs. Thankfully I didn't laugh like I normally would have...cause I was so confused. I couldn't even figure out what he was trying to say. It kinda looked like a bridge I guess...maybe he was trying to say bridge? I don't know, but thankfully he was saying it unintentionally and to add to the cuteness, he could see that I was confused so he just kept saying it over and over until my facial expression changed. And just for the record, if he was indeed trying to tell me that this one was his 'insert bad word here'...I have NO idea where he picked that up from. Serious. None of that talk in my house. Ok, I'm not joking here people. You don't need to laugh because it may look like I'm writing sarcastically, but I'm not! :) Seriously.

I think I'll just move on now...

So, today, enjoy the things your kids say. Listen carefully. You may get a little golden nugget of joy and hilariousness when your child shouts out something like Danish Immersion Camp. So random. So good.

Enjoy your day, friends. Be blessed. Go play outside. It's still dark out for me right now, but I can feel it. It's going to be a nice day.
