Michaelism of the day

A-nin = again, and he also uses it for "more." A-din = all done. They sound pretty much exactly the same. But, God help you if you mistake one for the other at meal time. If you think he said "a-nin" when he really meant "a-din" and you put more food on his tray, you will be rewarded with flying sausage, oranges or eggs. If you think he said "a-din" when he really meant "a-nin" and you try to take him out of the high chair, you will be rewarded with a flailing tantrum. Ah, the joys of an 18-month-old.
