Her:   Hey, remember when I used to say ‘gymnastics’?  When I was little?

Us: What do you say now, instead?

Her: Vanastics.  Isn’t that funny how I used to talk?

Us: Yeah, gymnastics sounds pretty funny!  How do you say it right again?

Her: Vanastics.  Va-Nas-Tics.  Vanastics.

Us: Va-Nas-Tics.  Right.  Thanks, little girl.  Love you.

(She had it right, but we are clinging to that baby talk…)
