Gabe-ism

GABE: “Mom, does “Joe” start with ‘s’?”
ME: “No, ‘s’ goes ‘ssssss.’ ‘Joe’ starts with a ‘juh’ sound. What goes ‘juh’?”
GABE: “‘Juh’…’j'?”
ME: “Right!”
GABE: “Then why does the song go,’S for Joe’?”
ME: “What song?”
GABE: “The Bible song.”
ME: “What Bible song?”
GABE: “The one that goes, ‘S for Joe.’”
ME: “Right. Could you sing a little more for me?”
GABE: “Ezra, Nehemiah, S for Joe.”

ME: “Honey, that’s supposed to be, ‘Esther, Job.’”
GABE: “Oh. Whatever.”
