You say fungi, I say fun-guy

Each night at bedtime I read the boys a story, tuck them into their beds, snuggle a bit then leave them for a peaceful sleep. In theory...

Lately, the brief conversations after story time are some of the funnier ones. They probably do this on purpose to avoid sleep.

Tonight I was sitting on Sam's bed, making up a story about his stuffed animals. I said, "They're such fun guys!"

Jack belly laughs from the top bunk. "You said FUN-GUY!" he giggles. Yes, they're fun guys, I reply. He laughs harder.

"MOM," he says with attitude, "Fun-guy is a MUSHROOM!!!"

(Where in the world did he learn a word like fungi??)
