misinterpretation


it’s game day here on campus.
like a good buckeye family, we were dressed accordingly. 
it still caught me completely off-guard when, as we were walking into daycare, benny shouted “i love your birthday suit!!!” to his daddy. 
i was momentarily confused. 
until i realized that “i lub yo’ burgay suit,” in fact, translated to “i love your buckeye shirt!”
oops.
even mom translates incorrectly on occasion. 
and, GO BUCKS!
