Lexism of the Week

Yesterday, I was driving with Lexi in the car and we had a conversation that went like this,

Lexi: D-I-C-K

Me: Excuse me?

Lexi: Is that how you spell Dick, Mommy?

Me: Yes, but why are you spelling that? Use it in a sentence.

Lexi: I like Dick...

Me: silence.

Lexi: ...and I like Jane.

Me: Oh!!! Yes, Lexi, that's how you spell Dick.

She was talking about her Dick and Jane primer books, but since she hasn't been reading those lately, the initial part of this conversation frightened me a bit.
