Presenting a little vignette from my life.
Miniature Rose and her going-on-eight year old son are shopping at Sam's Club.
Rose sees that they have finally received a new shipment of the elusive General Tso's Chicken. "Wooo-Hooo!" she says to her son as she places two boxes of this tasty treat in the cart. "Your Daddy will be happy as a clam!"
The kidlet replies, "Hey Mom! You just used an idiom!"
I think I was in high school when I first heard the word, "idiom."
Three cheers for the literacy collaborative.
