I'm a pretty prolific Facebook user, and I usually update my status at least once daily. Awhile back, I posted a status update that was a mangled phrase from my then-2-year-old and called it "Wee One's Pop Quiz". Several of my friends/followers asked for more because they said they liked reading them and trying to figure them out, so I kept posting them.
I hope they weren't lying.
Anyway -- I think I'm going to put them here. Wee One just turned four, so it's been making me chuckle to re-read those old baby-talk phrases. I don't want to forget them.
They're super-fun.
