My son doesn’t talk too clearly yet, and like a lot of toddlers uses some interesting word choices. Such as this morning’s conversation:

Him: “Me need hoo ker.”

Me: “You need what?”

Him: “Me need hookER!”

It took me a minute to realize that last night he had been playing with one of those punching bag balloons and using it to hook onto things, driving his sister nuts. This, of course, was his “hooker”.

Good mom that I am, of course, I asked him if there was something I needed to know.

edited to add:

He’s still at it, but now the “hooker” is an 8 ft long flexible pencil he got for Christmas. I just about lost it when my husband was coiling up the pencil and my son started going on about “Daddy tie up me hooker!”
