My youngest son, Turner, is 4 years old. The combination of a developing sense of his world, an expanding vocabulary and a creative young mind have led to what we affectionately refer to as Turnerisms. Here are a few more:
When I introduced Turner to a co-worker whose wife is in the Bible Fellowship class that Tonya and I lead (the co-worker is working on Sundays), the conversation started like this:
Turner: "What's your Mom's name"?
Me: "You mean what's his wife's name".
Turner: "Oh yeah, sometimes I get confused".
While at the beach over fall break, Turner was sitting on the steps at the edge of the indoor pool dumping buckets of water on his head when a 5-year old girl comes over and asks him to play in the water with her. Turner hopped off the steps and walked over to where we were sitting:
Turner: "That girl wants me to play with her".
Tonya: "That's okay. You can play with her".
Turner: "No. I don't want to play with her. I don't want to marry her or babysit her".
Turner asked me to build him some sand castles while we out on the beach one afternoon. After building 10 of them, Turner said to me, "Daddy, you did such a good job. You could be one of my servants".
