Hyrum Talk

Hannah and Matthias' best friends are Korean so they pick up the occasional Korean word. Hannah has taken to calling me "Oma" which is Korean for Mom. The other day Hyrum was calling me and I wasn't responding...

Hyrum: "Mom, mom, mom! Mom! Oma, oma!"


We drove past a taxi the other day and Hyrum shouted "taxi!" so I told him, "remember, we used to ride in taxis in Singapore." For the rest of the morning he kept saying "Ride taxi. Sing a pore!!" with 3 syllables like that.


One night at dinner Hyrum kept poking Hannah with his fork. Finally she got mad so I told him he need to stop because it wasn't nice. He climbed off his chair and went in the living room to stand in the corner by the door. I asked him what he was doing and to come back to dinner. To which he responded, "I bad." He kept standing there for like 5 minutes before we convinced him he could come back to dinner.


Hyrum just brought a picture over to me, lifted up my shirt, and said "look Grace."
