I was cooking corn for dinner, boiling it still in the husk, and Abraham wanted to see what I was making. So I held him up, he pointed, and I told him it was corn. But then I realized that maybe he had never seen corn in the husk before, and I was trying to think of the word "husk" so I could explain it to him.
Me: I'm cooking corn. It's in the...um...what do you call it?
Abraham: Wa-wa. (Water).
I had to laugh. Poor kid, his mom can't even remember what water is called.
