Gone the Way of the...

Well, you know. Dodo birds, dinosaurs, and numerous cute mispronunciations by Grace -- all extinct. While we're thankful that she's becoming more understandable by the day, we'll miss the "words" she used to say. Things like:

Shyayah (glasses)
Aminamoy (orange)
Baisiyohyoh (bicycle)

And we love the occasions when she doesn't know all the words to a story or song, so inserts a word she knows that sounds similar to her, usually with hilarious results. My favorite example -- anyone know the hymn, "Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus, A Beaver?" No? Thought not. But when blessed redeemer isn't in your vocabulary, what do you do?
