Ben

This afternoon, while Julie was over for lunch, Troy had made a big stink so I told Ben to go tell Dad to change T's diaper, and Ben says this,

"Aww Mom, Nooooo. That will make Dad pompous."

Julie and I look up at each other, did he really just say "pompous"? Then we look at Ben.

Ben says," Pompous. It means to be snotty or full of yourself."

Both of our jaws drop. (And it's true, Mark probably would've gotten a little snotty if he had to change the diaper).

"Ben, how do you know that?"

"Word Girl".

I love Word Girl!



**Since we don't have TV Ben spends a good amount of time playing games on the computer. Word Girl is on pbskids.com and is really fun for him and he learns a lot from it. Super Why is another one of our favorites, also on pbskids.
