Almost 3

I made up a nursery rhythm for Jonathan when he was a baby. It goes like this:

好尊尊,乖尊尊,妈妈的好尊尊; 好尊尊,乖尊尊,爸爸的好尊尊。
尊尊好,尊尊乖,尊尊是妈妈的好宝宝; 尊尊好,尊尊乖,尊尊是爸爸的小老总。

Then it repeats itself with the following variation: 
尊尊好,尊尊乖,尊尊是外公的小 Q 蛋
尊尊好,尊尊乖,尊尊是外婆的 小心肝
尊尊好,尊尊乖,尊尊是Sophie 的 小肉丸.

A couple of days ago, I sang this to him again. He changed the lyrics to:
尊尊是外公的宝贝孙,尊尊是外婆的葡萄干。

宝贝孙 is how my dad calls Jonathan. My mom was the first to introduce 葡萄干 to him to eat. Now every time he talks on the phone or Skype with my parents, he tells them if we have 葡萄干 or if we run out of 葡萄干.
