Some cute Zach-isms:

- "Bweskwest" = breakfast; "vingeder" = vinegar; "imperagus" = asparagus; "incuse me" = excuse me

- "Does flour come from real flowers, Mommy?"

- "Where are my pretend construction boots? Winnie the Pooh says (in a low voice), 'I have your boots!'" :=D

- "I like blue. It's my favourite ." Mommy asks, "What about green? I thought green was your favourite?" "I like green, and blue, and red, and purple, and black, and ..." Mommy explains that 'favourite' means 'best'. Zach replies, "Green is my favourite."

- Daddy & Mommy sometimes awaken to lovely strains of "Happy Birthday" (sung while still lying in bed, in his room) :=)

- Zach does not enjoy drawing, but loves painting - mostly (if not entirely?) the mixing of gooey colours. He loves doing his 'Lord Projects'!
