Spiders.com
"I wonder what kind of spider it is." Quick as a whip, Rachel says, "You can just go to Spiders.com and find out." From the mouths of babes! So, we hopped on the computer, typed in Spiders.com, and what do you think we found? Domain name or server not found. Bummer. It was a good idea!

Poppy Seed World
What, you might ask, is Poppy Seed World, and how can we go there? Well, when Rachel was 2, we took her to the Little Caesar's version of Chuck E. Cheese's - Caesarland. It was great - lots of stuff to climb on, games to play, and pizza. It was a frequent meeting place for Lisa's Mom 'n' Tot group. One day, Rachel asked if we could go to Poppy Seed World. "Poppy Seed World?" we asked, at a total loss. She meant Caesarland, and was very upset that we couldn't figure it out -- until we drove by it. Unfortunately it recently closed down, perhaps they should have changed their name?
Jack, Pal, and Guys
There's Jack. That's his main friend. Jack is not real (Jeremy will tell you this), but Jeremy has out-loud coversations with him all the time. In fact, sometimes they have fights, then make up. Oh, and Jeremy also answers himself as Jack.
Then, there's Pal. I think Pal is the "older" friend, he's been around longer. Jeremy has some conversations with him, but I think he likes Jack better.
The Guys are this nebulous group of "others." I think they are extras he has hired into his little play world. They usually accompany Pal (I think so he doesn't feel so lonely, because Jeremy favors Jack). So, it's usually either Jack, or Pal and Guys. Sometimes, it's all of them (imagine how they all fit in our van on the trip to Disney World!).
Now, (follow me here) (deep breath) Jack has an imaginary friend named Jeremy. That's Imaginary Jeremy. He has another imaginary friend named Julia (see the post on Julia), but this is Imaginary Julia. Jack, Imaginary Jeremy, and Imaginary Julia are good friends. But again, Jeremy's best pal is Jack...
Julia
OK, the year is 2005-2006. Jeremy is in preschool (at the ripe old age of 4). Aunty Marla is about to get married, and --- oh, who's Julia? Well, let's let Jeremy explain: "She's my girlfriend. I'm going to marry her." See, Julia's this girl in his class. Jeremy talks about Julia all the time, and we found out later from her parents, Julia talks about Jeremy all the time. What!?!? OK, time to call my mom, and let her know she has another wedding to plan!

White eggs
"Why didn't you make them before?"
"I don't know how to flip them without breaking them."
"Oh, well I can do that!"
When we got home, Jeremy wanted "white eggs" - every day - for months! Hence, another family term.

Chop Chop!
The other day, I'm putting dinner on the table. As I put the smoothie cups out, Benjamin (Mr. Smoothie) starts screaming for his, and clapping his hands (he does that when he wants something). I say, "Hold on a minute! Boy, Ben must think he is a prince, to clap his hands and get what he wants. He thinks he can just say 'Chop! Chop!' and get what he wants." Ben then says "Chop! Chop!" I think, with a Herculean effort, I avoided spraying the food from my mouth over the table. [Ben will be 2 this Halloween.] Needless to say, he got his smoothie.
