The other day I wrote about our family lexicon at mama's site. And I have to put in a good word for my inbidible boy.
Everett has lots of go-to words for really good stuff. There are the "totally rad moves" and "was that a cool rad move mama?" from Backyardigans "surf's up" episode. Then there's "inbidible," which, as far as I can tell, is from "invisible" but means more like, "incredible," or "super-duper-totally-cool" or some such magical concept. Everett has to "do inbidible" and ask, "is that inbidible, mama?" and tell me, "you have to do inbidible!"
We're also learning about imagination, which is, as far as Everett knows, when the crab goes scratch-scratch at his window, trying to break the window and get in (a particularly vivid dream he had one night). And when the ghosts try to come out of the hole. And when the thousands of scary things happen, that aren't real. "Is that imagination, mama?" he says, inflecting liltingly and enunciating beautifully.
In my imagination, despite my constant frustration with Everett's temper and stubbornness, all the world is inbidible. Now, let's see some totally rad moves!
