steven
finally acquired the ty godzilla, ghidorah, and mothra. (i don't want to talk
about that.) steven tends to want to bring all of his toys with him everywhere
he goes. his teacher finally solved the problem of steven taking toys to school
by permanently confiscating his dinosaur one day. since the ty characters were
imported from japan, are somewhat scarce, were expensive, and his mother swore
"I'M NOT BUYING ANY MORE GODZILLA STUFF, SO STOP ASKING ME," steven
decided that it would not be wise to take them to school with him. he set them
on the stairs facing the door so they would be there to greet him when he got
home from school. as scott came down the stairs, steven announced, "i'd
better not take my godzilla guys to school because ms. gentry might take them
away." scott voiced his agreement: "that's right. they're
irreplaceable."
"what
does 'irreplaceable' mean?" asked steven, the king of asking questions who
often annoys his parental units by asking obvious questions or asking questions
over and over and over and....
"well,
steven, what does replaceable mean?" asked scott with his expert parenting
techniques in play.
"get
another one," answered steven proving he has a perfectly good brain
brimming with vocabulary.
"so what
does 'irreplaceable' mean?" asked scott.
"to
listen for another one?"
