In the Words of Cal

I haven't posted any Calisms in a while so I thought now would be a good time.

First, a great conversation between Cal and I:

Mommy:  I am awesomesauce!
Calvin:  I am applesauce, too!

Now, for other cute things he is saying lately:

When singing the ABC song, he now finishes it with "Now I lay me down to sleep.  I pray the Lord my soul to keep. Amen!"

He is singing a lot lately.  Jingle Bells continues to be a favorite even though it is now February.  He doesn't quite have all the words so instead of "Oh what fun it is to ride", he sings "Wa na na na na to ride."  He is an enthusiastic, if not accurate, singer.  Just like Mommy!

Every once in a while, we will address him by a teasing name by saying something like, "Good luck, Chuck!"  He will respond with, "I am not Chuck.  I am Calvin."

Along those same lines, I was singing to him the other day and replaced the name in the song with Calvin. So, I sang, "Calvin over the ocean, Calvin over the sea, Calvin caught a big fish, can't catch me!"  He made sure to inform me that it was, in fact, Charlie in the song, not Calvin.

I've got more but these are the ones that come to mind right now.
