Sounds like a Forrest Gump type moment.
Of course the kid-communication things could go on an on. Reminds me of one of my son's teams for 7-year-old baseball a few years ago. Really wild opposing pitcher so we tell the on-deck batter to go up there and "make sure you take one." First pitch, a foot over his head. Takes a big chop at it. Misses. After the at-bat (a resulting strikeout, I think), "Tommy, what happened?" Totally confused that we were even asking: "You told me to 'take one,' so I did -- I took a real big swing!" Sigh. We were more careful with our words after that.
