You saw someone on TV use air quotes and you asked me why the person made that hand gesture. I explained to you that people sometimes do that to signify that they are saying one thing but it's not really true, i.e. I say GuhGaw is "studying" when I know that he is really just doodling in his notebook. With this newfound knowledge of human mannerisms, you then kept coming up to me today and putting untrue things in air quotes.
"Mama, I'm [air quotes] baking you chocolate chip cookies."
"Mama, I'm [air quotes] using the bathroom."
"Mama, [air quotes] it is raining right now."
Hahaha! That's not exactly how air quotes are used but you are so cute!
Love,
Mom
