Tiny Talk Tuesday

Jacob has really been loving all kinds of "tricks" lately....magic tricks, plays on words, optical illusions, riddles. Yesterday he asked me for a pen, and wrote this on a piece of paper:

PEAR

The following conversation ensued.

Jacob: "What's this word?"
Me: "Pear."
Jacob: "I can make that pear disappear."
Me: "Really? Show me."

He takes back the paper, writes something else, then shows me the paper with his PEAR made into DISAPPEAR.

J: "See? Disappear! Get it?"
Me: Appropriate laughter. :) "Aahhh, that was sneaky!"
J: "Dis.Ap.Pear. That's one word. Three syllables, one word."
Me: "Yep."
J: "Good thing I didn't write Kiss a Pear. That would be two words. (yes, he said two) Disappear is one word, but kiss a pear is two words."
The Mister: "Well, if disappear is one word, and kiss a pear is two words, what about Kickapoo? What's that?"

J: "Now that's just nasty!"

Bahahahaha!!
