Wordsday Wednesday!

    We are back in action! Early release today so I hope Mom doesn't forget to read my blog to the kiddos. She's been extra  forgetful lately. 

   Today's terrific word is elusive. Elusive is an adjective that means hard to catch. This 18th century word originated in a famous dead language. What is the dead language I am referring to?

I was trying to be elusive by hiding under the covers.

Wordsday Wednesday

This week wondrous word is overwhelmed!

Overwhelmed!

Overwhelmed is a verb. Oh yeah, since this word has an ed as a suffix it tells me that it is past tense. So the base word is overwhelm. 

Overwhelmed means to take on too many task or overcome with emotion. 

Last June, I was overwhelmed by the news that mom was having a baby.
