I've always found it funny when kids use phrases ("sayings") with the incorrect words, or if they have no concept of the meaning. I'm not making fun of them, by any means, it just amuses me.

Take the saying above. I don't remember exactly what Meelie and I were talking about, but she popped up with "it's no skin off my teeth." The moment she said it, I knew it was wrong, but couldn't figure out the right words. We still use that phrase often and laugh every time. A few weeks ago we were down visiting my folks and we were all talking. Chickie popped up with "it's the principal." Meelie responded with "who's the principal?"

I remember when they were growing up, how they would mispronounce words and it was really hard to correct them because it was just so cute, and it was so hard not to laugh. Chickie would pronounce bathing suit as "begging soup." Meelie would refer to a trash can as a "crash can." When I was little, I used to call spaghetti, "pasgetti" and we still refer to it that way in my family.

What about you? Do you have any funny little phrases or words you would like to share? I'd love to hear them.
