Sausa Out?

When Alec much younger and trying to speak he would say “sausa –out”.

Sometimes it was a question and sometimes it was a statement. Erik and I had no clue what he was talking about.  After a while Erik would ask “sausa-out?” And sometimes Alec would say “it’s sausa out” and sometimes when Erik would ask Alec would say “no”.  And Erik would say “What does it mean? “ And Alec would laugh and laugh and laugh and never tell him.

It drove Erik crazy.

This went on for a quite a while but then we kind of forgot about it.  One day recently it reappeared and Alec started saying it again. And he laughed and laughed and laughed.  Of course now that he can speak clearly we asked the obvious. “Alec- what does sausa-out mean”?  He so very matter-of –fact answered “it’s dusk out”.

A 2 year mystery solved. 

Was it as anti-climatic for you as it was for me?

But hey’ it’s sausa out. I gotta go get that kid to bed! :)
