With 3- and 5-year-old boys at home, Amy Poehler has no shortage of new funny material. For example, on Tuesday, she appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live and shared a few of her kindergartner Archie’s recent one-liners. (“We’re made out of meat!” “What does furniture mean?”)

But with Abel, Poehler’s younger son, the way he talks cracks her up even more than what he says. “Abel is so cute. He’s got red hair and a lisp which is just a jackpot for me,” she told Kimmel. So while some parents are sentimental about their toddlers saying words such as “lello” and “amnimals,” Poehler enjoys hearing Abel mispronounce things like … “spicy salsa.” Naturally, she’ll go to great lengths to get him to say it too.

And the words you told us you love to hear your kids say are…
