what's my line?

A quick update of Kenny's current favorite catch phrases:

"What's happened?"
Picture this: A young boy. A toddler, if you will. Standing with a broken object in his hand. With a confused, and slightly perturbed yet innocent look, he gazes up at you and asks, "What happened?" It totally reminds me of this.

"Are you okay?"
Kenny is an empathetic soul and likes to make sure you're doing well. He'll often waddle up and ask, "Are you okay?" My favorite is when he does this to Sadie. I think he's bummed she never gives a satisfactory answer.

"Good to see you!"
Kenny is also very warm and welcoming. He cracks us up when we walk into the room and he looks up and shouts, "Daddy! It's good to see you!" I mean, honestly, who doesn't want that kind of welcome? Yesterday he did it to his buddy Jack and it was priceless. "Jack! Jack! Jack! It's good to see you!" I kept waiting for him to pause and then ask, "So? How's the wife and kids?"

"Oh my goodness."
This one, I'm pretty sure came from daycare. When he says it, it makes him seem about 80 years older than he actually is. It's such a grandparent-y thing to say. For instance: Kenny drops a toy, only to see it shatter on the ground. Slightly surprised, and a touch disappointed, he announces, "Oh my goodness."

"That's kind of funny."
I'm not really sure where he picked this one up, but it slays me. Especially when something goes totally wrong and he cocks his head and announces, "That's kind of funny." Yes it is, Son. Yes it is.
