recent Addison-isms

1. Uses "from" instead of "when". Ex., "Can we go to Nonnie's house from we are done with dinner?"
2. Acutely aware of sounds and often says things incorrectly, but will correct you if you try to correct her: "Whistle Man" instead of "This Old Man". This causes us to be aware of our pronunciation.
3. Ability to replace words in songs with other rhyming words.
4. Enjoys replacing words in songs with silly words just to make us laugh. Particularly fond of using "booty" or "goose".

JoB and Papa used to LOVE to tell the story about me singing the Mickey Mouse song where they spell it at the end. My version was M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-CCCCCCCC!!! And like Addison I WAS RIGHT, and THEY were wrong.
