Pronunciations of a 5 Year Old...

...can be very funny!

Yesterday Benjamin got punished for disobeying me. He was rather upset that he wouldn't be able to play with his friends for the rest of the day. Benjamin pulled out his paper and pencil and headed to the table. This is the conversation that followed.

"What are you writing?" I asked.

Benjamin replies, "I am writing a note to Jasper."

Excited that my son took the initiative to do some writing, I said, "Oh, that's great! What are you writing about?"

"I am telling him that I am drownded!! He was drownded last week too."

Mother says that "drownding" the children is really quite frowned upon. I told her, "If he would only obey, I wouldn't have to 'drownd' him."
