These are three of Hope's favourite words...
First of all, owies. Because I get a lot of blood work done, Hope frequently asks me "owies?" and insists I show her the inside of my elbow so she can inspect. She also seems to have frequent owies of her own, all of which require a kiss better (until of course she told her dad that she had 'owies' on her bottom...)
"Broken" has become a catch-all word for Hope. If something is broken, it's broken (we all nod our heads); if a page is ripped in a book, it's broken; if Hope can't get at something she wants, it's broken; if there's a button (or something that looks like a button) and nothing happens when Hope hits it, it's broken; if Hope doesn't like something we put in the shopping cart, it's broken; etc. Today Hope pointed at her belly button and said 'it's broken'... I'm still not sure what prompted it to be broken.... maybe it falls under the button rule previously mentioned. Currently 'broken' is still in the cute phase... I wonder if that will change...
Stuck means virtually the same as broke, but only applies to things that Hope can't get at, can't free or when she is stuck somewhere. The funniest thing about stuck is that she assumes it works the same as 'broke'. As in she'll say broke/stuck and also broken/stucken. I laugh so hard when she says "it's stucken!"
While I wrote this post, Hope reminded me of her many other favourite words... uck!, byebyes, poop, and babies to name a few... Someday soon I'll write about those, I now have to go deal with "I poop!"
