So Lucy, like all young children, has her own terms/pronunciations for things. Some of them, I get. Some of them, I don't.
This one, I didn't. It was clear, from context, that when she said, "momo-feagan," that she meant "more." But the origin of the phrase, I didn't know.
Then, it evolved into "mo-feagan."
And then, I realized she was saying, "more freakin.'" As in, "More freakin' cheese, please, Momma!"
Who taught my child that? Where would she hear such a thing?
Oh, wait.
It's possible...
No.
But maybe...
Oh, I hope not.
She learned it from me.
It was a sad day when I realized that.
