WORD OF THE DAY

Alot of my topics come from mealtime conversations....but that's when we can get our kids to sit still long enough to actually talk.  Our meal at the table is pretty much a regular thing, just so we can all sit together for a while.

Another thing that was brought up during our Sunday lunch meal this week, Big T was talking about his music teacher and how fast she types.  Then he was explaining how she learned to type that fast (by helping deaf children).  :)   

As he was talking about this, Little T broke in and said..."That's FLUENCY." 
Me: "What???"  (I was a bit shocked and you should've seen the look on everyone's faces...LOL)
Little T:  "Fluency...it means you can do it really fast.....Fluency is like fast reading."
(Keep in mind....HE'S 6!!  And obviously has an awesome reading teacher!! But I already knew that.)  :)

This incident also reminded me of when he was around 3 and used 'ACTUALLY' pretty regularly when he was trying to explain things.   I never realized that I used that word so much at that time....Actually, maybe I did.  He just reminded me alot.   Thinking back, I don't think that I've ever used 'fluency' in a sentence.  Hmmm....LOL

So...since he's given you a 'Word of the Day' for Monday....use it...have fun!
Be 'fluent' and prosper. :)  There....now I have....sorta.  :)

Blessings for the week......and 'Thank you, Mrs. S'!!!!
