WHM Thinks I Am Crazy

My poor kids.  I mean, on the one hand, they have it good because they learn English as native speakers.  On the other hand, it's not easy, no matter how old you are, but especially when Mommy corrects you and it makes almost no sense.  WHM thinks I am out to get him, for sure.

Conversation just now:

WHM:  Mommy, where's my motorcycle?
ME:  Right there, on the rocking chair.
WHM:  Oh!  I thought you hided it!
ME:  Not, "hided," "hid."
WHM:  Oh, I thought you HID it.
ME:  No, I didn't hide it.

Poor kid just looked at me like I was either nuts or trying to trick him, grabbed his motorcycle, and walked away!
