"Meem" Take Two
Speaking of Josiah's strange words, his weirdest one is probably "memmee," commonly known as maybe. For some reason this word fascinates him, although he doesn't understand what it means. He delights in shouting it out when Jeremy or I mention it in passing. Jeremy was recently singing "A Mighty Fortress" to the boy to calm him before bed. It took Jeremy a while to figure out why the rapidly fading kid suddenly perked up and started chanting "memmee." Repeating the lyrics in his head, Jeremy finally came up with "Dost ask who that may be?" So much for sleeping!
