Vocabulary Words

Grant works for Jared, who has a 2-year old son, Dale. Grant gets a charge out of hearing Dale talk, and reports some of his more interesting creations.

Breakfast=Freckus (not to be confused with fracas. I don't think Jared and Yolie's meals are quite that chaotic.)

Grandpa=Pum (No one can figure out where this comes from.)

Grandpa David=Chicken Pum (He has chickens and makes and sells a neat chicken tractor--the Egg Cart'n.)

Grandpa Brent=Cow Pum (He is a dairyman. The pattern here obviously is identification according to most important possessions.)

Forklift=Fork Flip (I hope this is not a commentary on what happens every time the forklift is in use.)

Someday Dale will grow up and have a vocabulary as boring as ours. Sigh.

  • You should know that a few days ago, Dale informed Jared that "Grant is my friend."
    I should probably clarify that "Chicken Pum" and "Cow Pum" came to be when I was trying to figure out a way to differentiate between the two "Pums" for him. He picked it up without too much problem, though.:)
    -Dale's mommy
