I was choosing what video to show on the blog just below this and Kaily came into the room to help me decide. As we were watching it this was our conversation, "Mom, this video is a skittish video." "Why do you say that?" I asked her, shocked that she knew the word at all. "Because look at Andrew, he's not singing and that means he's skittish." She said it so matter-of-fact like that I had to repress laughter. Then as we looked at another video she started talking again. "Mom, this video is trepidatious." "Gaw, WHAT?! Where are you getting all these words?" "Well, it means the same as skittish." Also said very matter-of-fact like.
I don't know where she got it or who she heard it from, but she comes up with words like this all the time. The scary thing is sometimes I have to look up what she is saying so that I can give her the right definition, although, nine times out of ten she's used the word correctly.

Word Girl? That's where Korbin gets his big words from! Isn't it funny to hear such big words come out of such little mouths! Love it!
