Literally Literal

I've been noticing lately that Tatum is indeed very literal. She likes things to be said the way that they are precisely, and any deviation from the exact truth, has been, well, corrected promptly. Here's a few examples of things recently said. This girl is nutty.

 

Mom: Wow Tatum, you just did a Summer Sault!

Tatum: No No Mama..ACTUALLY (a very over used word now in her vocab) its FALL time, so its REALLY called a FALL SAULT. And in the Winter, you say WINTER SAULT and in the SPRING, its called a SPRING SAULT!

Mom: (To Grandma with Tatum overhearing) So look, heres  Tatum's  Kitty Cat costume-black pants, ears, tail and black turtle neck..

Tatum: Um..no its not a TURTLE neck..its a kitty Cat neck!

Mom: Tatum, please just hold your horses!

Tatum: But mom, I dont have any horses to hold!

 

Anyone:Oh man!

Tatum: BUT Im not a MAN! Im a lady!
