Last week, Cornell was waiting in the car for us to leave. I was bouncing around the driveway getting ready to go. He poked his head out of the window and asked me how many syllables "Indiana Jones" had. I repeated "Indiana Jones" to him slowly while counting out the syllables on my fingers.
He then exclaimed, "Wow! Well, then I can burp 5 syllables 'cause I just burped "Indiana Jones" in one burp!"
He then asked, "Hey Mom, what's the name of that guy who kidnaps babies?"
I responded with a dumbfounded look and asked him where he had heard of kidnapping babies. He replied, "You know, if you can't guess his name, he kidnaps your baby".
After thinking for a moment, I realized. "Rumpelstiltskin," I asked.
"Yeah that's the guy! How many syllables is he?" After I counted it on my fingers for him to see, he burped Rumpelstiltskin in one burp for me. So sweet.
