A Note on My Eve

If I recall right, God gave the privilege of naming things to Adam and he promptly named his significant other, Eve. Of course, at that point Eve kind of took over because Adam probably did it all wrong and called things names that made little sense or didn't quite "fit" the measure of their creation. You know, typical girl stuff.

Well, my two-year-old is at that naming stage and, to be honest, she is a creative little soul. Here are some of her more creative inventions.

Actual Name--Two-year-old Invented Name

Broccoli--Trees
Frosted Mini Wheats--Hay
Hamburger--Chicken
Steak--Chicken
Pork--Chicken
Chicken--Chicken
Anniversary--Birthdaynersery
Her Ceramic Cat--Elephant Name (we are a little concerned about this one)
Waffles--Awfuls
With--If (As in, "I want to go if you, Grandpa."
Baby Brother--Bud
Vernon Worthen Park--Mervyn Mervyn Park
McDonalds--Donalds
Judd's General Store--The penny-candy store
Kasey Kartwheel Doll--Area (pronounced ah-REE-ah)
Computer--Pewter
Our Neighbor Ray--Grandpa Ray

When she was really little she called all giraffes, "zebras" and she called Grandpa Jones, "Bumpa". Heck, I'd still call him that if his real given name didn't irritate him so much.
