Yesterday...
Jonathan - "Growl in the hospital."
Mama (completely baffled) - "What, Buddy?"
J - "Growl is in the hospital."
M - "What? Say that again."
J - "Growl is in the hospital."
M (after having him repeat this cryptic statement numerous times, the light bulb finally goes on) - "Oh! Do you mean Ralph?"
J - "Yes. Growl is in hospital."
[Oh, the things they hear!! When Jody recently took Jonathan for a walk, they stopped to talk to a neighbor...and found out that her husband had been in the hospital. Good memory, son! We'll work on pronunciation!]
and last night...
J (finishes his bedtime snack then brings his plate over to Daddy) - "May I have some milk and crannies?"
Daddy (with much puzzlement) - "You want what, Buddy?"
J - "Milk and crannies"
D - "Some what?"
J - "Milk and crannies"
D - "You'll have to wait till Mama comes back from putting Andrew to bed. Maybe she knows what you're talking about."
a few minutes later Mama arrives on the scene...
J - "May I have some milk and crannies?"
M - "Sure Bud! Here you go!" (hold out her hand) "Here are some nooks and crannies for you!"
J (takes something imaginary from Mama's hand and pretends to eat it) - "Thanks, Mama!"

Jonathan you are also a good cook. I enjoyed my peanut butter and jelly you made me and the cookies when we had Ladies' Night out last month. Did you tell mama you made all that food for me? Your daddy has to get "into this great imaginary cooking"!
It sounds like you had a lot of fun with your grandparents.
With love,
