Shiny

Doggie, horsie, tractor, up, down, Mama, Daddy, Bampa (Grandpa), Memaw (Grandma), gok (yogurt), bus, car, truck, shirt, duck, church, amen, frog, cat, and at least 100 other words...  Our son's ever-growing vocabulary has undoubtedly blossomed to include (today) the word "shiny"...  Our geeky little hearts all a-flutter at the sound of this word, and I wondered how he picked this one up, since we've yet to sit him down in front of our all-time favorite show, Firefly (he's a little young yet).  And here as I type this, the answer dawns on me: from one of us.  Shiny.  :)
Yep, still makes me smile.  Oh, son, our little geek in the making...

Shiny.
