Vocabulary Pains

You gotta love the conversations you get with growing vocabularies! Here's one from yesterday:

Emma Lee: "Mommy, Kerri murdered."
Me: "Really, who did she murder?"
Emma Lee: "Me."
"Me: "Ummm, do you know what murdered means? It means she killed you - are you dead?"
Emma Lee: "No. Well, she did talk bad about me."
Me: "Ok, maybe you mean murmur?"
Emma Lee: "Yes! She murmured me!"
