Definitions

These are some of the English words a little girl from China will have to learn if she becomes a part of our family.....

~Tay-No.....Tanner's name, as pronounced by Tony.
~Crunches.....What Tanner tells me he needs every time he gets a sore on his legs. A.K.A. crutches.
~Privacy.....a land of Oz, a far off world, a fictional place, a euphoric state of mind, as easy to find as the Loch Ness Monster.
~Pork chops.....chop sticks, if you're Tanner.
~NO.....this is what mom says for her health and because she feels like it for no apparent reason. It has no true meaning.
~We'll see.....Means NO. Although, see above meaning of THIS word.
~Spootsy (spoot-see) boy....Tony's nickname for everyone in his family.
~Shmootz.....what Tanner will tell you you have in your nose if he sees a booger.
~Bed....that soft thing in a bedroom that the boys look up at every night as they are sleeping on the hard floor.
~Vacation.....HUH?

No idea....he's been saying it for maybe 2 yrs. Not as much now as he used to. It's really cute.
