As a kid every family has their own little phrases growing up. I remember the way my grandparents would call the couch the davenport or the way they would say warsh your hands lol.

My parents used to tell me and my brothers that if we ate before bed we would get the Whim-wams. I always assumed that it meant bad dreams.

I used it on my kids and here recently my oldest looked it up and said that it doesn't exist lol. She said that she is the only one with weird parents.
