Don't You Know What "No" Means??

In case you are wondering... "could someone please tell me the meaning of the word "no," here it is. :) Straight from the Clarksters Dictionary - with examples to help clarify how each form should be used.

NO

1) No.

If this comes from Mom or Dad, it should be followed up with a loud wail. If it comes from Clark, it is said very sweetly and matter of factly -- and when eating with a hand in front of his cute little mouth.

2) Forehead.

I would like to say that when he points to his forehead and calls it a "no," he is saying "know" and is showing extreme smartness, but from definition # 3, I doubt it. He thinks no is forehead and forehead is no. I think this is why he laughs so hard whenever either Grandma tells him "no no :)" If someone came up to me, smiled and said "forehead forehead" I think I'd probably laugh too.

3) Yes.

Up and down are synonyms, so why not yes and no?? We've now made a lovely habit of asking... just to be sure... "by 'no' did you mean 'yes?'" followed up with "YAS!!!"

"no."
