Logos boy
Calvin has spent the past few days furiously cramming words together in his attempt to tell or ask us things. When he wants to link words into a sentence and he doesn't know how to put it all together, he interpolates with "-a-" as prefix or suffix, which makes him sound like Chico Marx. This has led to sentences like:
"Open a garage door bike-a ride!"
"Papa, boo-boo on a toe, kiss it-a better!"
"Going-a store! A stroller, ok? Wanna go!"
And the nightly routine of "Give you some more milk, rock a little!" right before bed. That's the only pronoun he still reverses with any regularity, and I'm not sure it isn't a joke for him, like the following exchange, which he absolutely knows is funny:
Me: "One...Two..."
Calvin: "Five!"
Me: "No, three!"
Calvin: "Five!"
Me: "No, three!"
Calvin: [laughter] "Five!!"
This is the child keeping me sane. Thank god.

perfect halloween costumes in the making, i'd say. Calvin as Chico, you as Groucho...you can still do Groucho, yeah?

At the Circus, a later, substandard film that was a gift. On the other hand, At the Circus has the classic line "No thanks, bad luck, three on a midget" and also contains possibly the first fursuit sodomy ever suggested/implied on film, so it's not ALL bad.

Have you taught him to say, "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!" yet? ;)

It's inexplicable.
