Pod, J, and Skipping....

I hate when I hear kids say, "I need to go pee." I know it's personal preference...but it is just not the most polite way to tell someone you need to go to the bathroom. At our house we say, 'I need to go to the bathroom' or 'I need to go potty'. Now I know there are probably people out there that are turned off by my children saying 'potty' instead of something else...but, like I said, personal preference.

So that being said, Julianna has a new way of saying that she needs to go to the bathroom and it cracks me up. When she needs to go she tells me she says, "I need to go pod." I don't know why this is so funny to me and it is maybe not as blog worthy as I think. But, someday when I'm reading over my old blog posts, I think that the fact that Julianna once said "pod" instead of "potty" it will make me laugh.

In other, not so amusing, news...Julianna wants us to call her J instead of Julianna. I think it's her way of asserting that she is not a girly girl. I am sad about this because I love her name. I think her name is so beautiful...Julianna Kate. So anyway, if she asks, please call her J.

It's funny that she wants to have a boy name when she is so girly that she doesn't run during her basketball game. She flits and skips and  bounces and floats...but she does not run. :) What can I say? She is her own person and we love that about her.
