Today's Ferryisms

Ferri: Mommy, one of these (the blocks) is missing. So I'll make something else.
Mommy: Great, Ferri! That's what we call being flexible! You are flexible in your guf (body) and neshama (soul).
Ferri: What's neshama?
Mommy, wondering how to handle this one for a four-year-old, especially while getting a baby dressed: Uhh, it's..
Ferri: It's the talking thing?

And thus Ferri summarizes two thousand years of Jewish philosophy.

We also had this morning:
Mommy: Today's Abba's birthday!
Ferri: No, yesterday was his birthday.
Abba: Yesterday was my birthday and today is my birthday.
Ferri: What, you were born on two days?
