Evan decided his middle name is excessive
I've started doing something on purpose. I catch the little throwaway lines my kid says and I repeat them back to him later. It tells him I was actually listening.
We were fishing and I kept pulling in one after another. Evan wanted every single one, and he slipped into this baby voice to try to talk me out of them.
So I called him excessive. He didn't miss a beat. That's my middle name. Excessive.
He said it and moved on like it was nothing, but it stuck. Now it's a running joke between us. Those unscripted lines are more him than anything he'd give me if I asked a direct question.
So I collect them, and I'll bring this one back up in a week just to watch him grin that I remembered.
What's a line your kid tossed off once that your family still repeats?
