Supermangirl Strikes Again!

My youngest daughter, who has an interesting relationship with the English language, has a tendency to innocently utter statements that make me do a double take (see here). Her latest contributions:

"My teacher talked today about two Presidents who were related- Teddy and Franklin Rosenfeld."
Upon meeting my cousin, who lives in Florida: "Does he know that he's your cousin?"
Asking about her babysitter: "Is my servant coming tomorrow?"
Looking disdainfully at her brother, who was behaving silly: "I don't think we have the same DNA."

Sounds like a great kid, and like you have your hands full. Let me know if you ever meet those Rosenfelds.

Lol. And historians tell us that we have yet to have a Jewish president here in the US--what do they know.

I had a coworker who said things far spacier. Like "We went to Spain and went to that beautiful city that begins with an M." Me: "Madrid?" "No, not Madrid. Wait, I've got it. Barcelona!"

And that young lady was gainfully employed, so I don't think you have anything to worry about.

I'm with LOZ. LOL, unless one is the babysitter. but if you won't tell the sitter, she won't know.
