Where did that come from?
Gretta, who is three years old, came into my bedroom this morning and said, "It's almost time to bring the [older] kids to school. Therefore I need shoes."
"'Therefore'?!!" I repeated, giggling.
"Therefore. It means 'that's why'", she explained patiently, before repeating the first sentence.
Are our speech patterns so stuffy and bloated that a three year old uses "therefore" in conversation? Oy.

Awww. Not stuffy, that means the adults around her are setting a good example. :)
My 3 year old uses a host of words like this too. Maybe a shidduch, lol?
