My Sweet Italian Man

Sometimes it seems like Harry lives on the wrong continent - the boys KNOWS how to siesta and he mimics accents and tones great, but tends to lean toward-a the Italian, as in:

Mommy-a, I had-a bad-a dream!
So, that's-a why! (This is a favorite thing lately, giving all sorts of round-about details and ending with "that's why" and a funny little face)

Other things I want to get on tape at some point because they crack me
It'll CUT you! (Don't ever make the mistake of telling your son who loves all things aviar that a tall tower could cut you if you fly by it fast....who knows why I said it that way, or why it stuck, but "It'll CUT you!" is a favorite caution of his)

...and to think we used to wonder when he'd ever START talking....apologies to anyone who he's accosted lately with his stories, and thanx for being so patient and kind :-)

AOL has a story about finding the oldest human footprint - I wonder if this is the oldest reference to spooning (circa 1912):
Tony, he make-a da spoon wid Annette
It make her feel-a much better, you bet

And this may be the most accurate motto I've found for him yet:
He got no time to work, he's gotta love

Irving Berlin
