Fun on Friday- More Turnerisms

My youngest son, Turner, just turned 4 years old. The combination of a developing sense of his world, an expanding vocabulary and a creative young mind has led to what we affectionately refer to as Turnerisms. Here are some more:

Turner: "I need a drank" (with an a).
Me: "Say drink" (with an i).
Turner: "I can say toilet. That's an easy word."

After building an impressive Thomas the Tank Engine train track with the help of his 7 year old brother Parker: "This is huge-mongous!!"

I recently was reading Turner a Thomas the Tank Engine book and read a line that stated, "Thomas' wheels sputtered at an oily spot on the track".
This is the conversation that followed:
Turner: "Daddy, don't say oily".
Me: "Okay. What should I say then"?
Turner: "Say I like your windmill".
The sentence then read "Thomas' wheels sputtered at an I like your windmill spot on the track"....... and Turner was good with that.

To a new Dad with a 2-month old son: "Your baby is not a toy".
