When my son was about five, he went through an extremely annoying phase. Everything he said had to be prefaced by, “Do you know something?”
And I mean everything
My responses are varied but usually, I said, “Yes, I know everything.” Undaunted, he blabbered on. One day, he and his BFF Seanie had an entire conversation that had to be prefaced with “do you know something” each time they spoke.
It was the longest playdate ever.
My husband hit his limit when Bode tried to get his attention.
Bode: “You know something?”
Jamie: “Stop saying that! Just say ‘Hey Daddy.'”
Bode: “OK. Hey Daddy, do you know something?”
