SUBURBAN DICTIONARY

My kids come up with the craziest stuff. Well it's probably more cute than crazy. So I've started this page called 'The Suburban Dictionary' where I will keep up with all the words my kids use & come up with, along with their definitions, as well as the questions they ask. Like the latest question from Juliet... do cars have blood? No? Then what's in them to make them fat?
