The Water Jar is displaying his nice, tidy room. He also uses the word “acorn” to refer to a color. He must have to fight the girls off with a stick.
Actually, an old gentleman said that about one of our sons once, and my husband was appalled. Never having heard the expression before, and therefore not realizing that it referred to our boy’s extreme adorableness, he began to protest that his son would never behave in such a way. Cross-cultural communication can be challenging.
I think someone gave my mom the quilt…it might have been store-bought and thus devoid of the love that a hand-made quilt would be infused with. Keep it copasetic. Peace.
I suppose the ‘fight the girls off with a stick’ said immediately following his use of the word ‘acorn’ to describe the color of the room could have been tongue in cheek. So he literally thought he meant he would use a stick and hit girls with it? Cute.
