I like new words. I like using different words instead or the ordinary one because well I am not ordinary. So for this challenge I decided to take normal words that I usually use and look up different words for them and choose one to use that day. Now some days I was home when I used to them so I wrote down my sentence and other days I was out and in a rush and quite frankly now that I am playing catch up I can't remember shit. So I am going to list the "ordinary" word and next to it I am putting the word that I used for that day. This was a really fun and simple one. I liked some of the faces the boys gave to me when I used a word to them. I think it also encourages them to expand their vocabulary and learn different ways to say one word.
