Many years ago, when I was 23-25 years old, I worked as a salesman in a furniture store in Germany. I had a goatee back then, and one day, some customers brought a small kid with them in the shop.
He points at a chair, and proudly says "Stuhl" , and his parents tell him how clever he is.
Then he points at a candle, and proudly says "Kerze", and his parents tell him how clever he is.
Then he points at a table, and proudly says "Tisch", and his parents tell him how clever he is.
Then he points at me, and says "Opa" (Grandpa), and I'm just standing there with a wtf-expression on my face, and his parents tell me, his Grandpa also has a similar looking beard, so the kid figured, man with goatee = Opa
Doc.

My youngest is not-quite-three, with a reasonably large vocabulary ... and loves to talk!
At the moment, though, he's lacking a few verbs ... but has a default verb to use! So, when he's not sure of the verb he wants, he uses, "crunching". Some examples I've heard over the past few weeks ...
"I'm crunching to go that way!" (trying)
"I'm crunching the bread." (in this case not eating, as might be logical, but buttering)
"I'm crunching my boots on!" (putting, clearly - in a hurry to get out the door ...)
Most often, it's instead of 'trying', but it's amazing what's being "crunched" at the moment! Just can't recall them all right now ...

My little one is a bit too small to really talk, but I just can't resist to post, how it makes my heart glow when she smiles. I could never ever imagine that a smile can be so moving and touching.

Our oldest had a lot of "problems" with personal pronouns, specifically I/me interchanging with you.
Me: "XXX do you want to try this, or shall I do it?"
Him: "No, you do it"
(me starts doing task or whatever).
Him: "NO! You do it, you do it, you do it!"
Me: "I am, I am, I can't do it any faster..."
Him: "NO! You do it, you do it, you do it!"
Me: *click* "Oh, you want to do it?"
Him: "Yes!"
Happened for a good couple of months. I was kinda' sad when he stopped speaking like that, as it was sweet in a way only said child's parent can understand .

A couple of days ago my nearly 3 year old daughter very nearly made me choke on my breakfast cereal with the following conversation :
Me : Are you excited about going to Grandma & Grandad's for Christmas?
Her: Yes
Me : You'll be sharing a room with your cousin, will that be OK?
Her : Yes. He's a boy?
Me: Yes darling, he's a boy.
(Pause for thought)
Her: Boys have willies, girls have foo-foo's (I know, blame her Dad for that one!)
I've got a foo-foo, you've got a foo-foo, Daddy has a Willy and XXX (her brother)
has a willy too?
Me : Yes that's right.
Her: When I get bigger, I get a spikey foo-foo too?
Me: (Spluttering my cereal over the table) Pardon me?
Her: You was bending over in the bathroom the other day and you have a spikey foo-
foo. I get one when I get bigger.
I laughed till I cried, but am really praying that this conversation isn't repeated over Christmas Dinner with the whole family present!

Decades ago, my grandparents gave my brother (aged about 3 at the time) one of those little cardboard tubs of ice cream with a peel-off lid. He studied it carefully, turned it around a few times, looked at the bottom - then stared up at his grandparents with huge, solemn eyes and announced in a bewildered tone, "No door!"

I always remember when one of my nephews, then aged 3, and I went to feed bread to the ducks at the local pond. One of them came right up to him, was about the same height and was quacking away like mad for food and he told it to shut up and stop shouting! It did .
