Word Of The Week

Life is a blur of 'What's next?!' for a toddler

Abbey's Word of the Week this week is...

Next adj
Pronunciation: nets
Coming immediately after the present one.
This word has come to be used when a song ends - 'NEXT!' - or a page of a book is about to be turned - 'NEXT!' - or a book has been finished - 'NEXT!' - or a new toy is ready to be played with - 'NEXT!' - or a meal has been finished - 'NEXT!'
It makes one sound rather impatient. But that, of course, is because the person in question is rather impatient and always ready to move to the NEXT! thing.

    Cute! And they don't like to wait until the page has been read either, do they? It's next before we've even reached the good part.

    LOVE it. It's so interesting which words they focus on. The Bebito hasn't started in on "nets" yet. :)
