Words invented by Toddlers

Difflicated (Dif-fli-ca-ted)--mixed up.

As in: "I need mac and cheese, I'm all difflicated."

Undifflicate (Un-dif-flic-ate)--getting mac and cheese.

As in: "Mommy, I need mac and cheese to undifflictate me."

These are words used by Jonathan today. When I asked where he heard them, he told me he made them up by squishing daddy's shoes (he was wearing Mark's shoes at the time). He was very serious about his new words, although I'm not sure "serious" is the best word to use since Jonathan has redefined it too:

Serious (seer-ee-us)--Mad

As in: "Mommy, time-outs make me serious!"
