Living Vicariously.

I listened to my three year old and four year old today. Their discussions are way more interesting than grown-up conversations. Here are some examples from today: (And I will say, they all happened in a span of twenty minutes. Imagine my whole day..)

1. Our vehicles were parked facing each other and there was a discussion as to whether the cars were smiling or angry at each other.

2. Since houses, trees, and AJ were not wearing clothes, all were all classified as "naked". ( Since this conversation happened in the front yard, I will say, AJ was not completely naked. He had a diaper on.)

3. Shadows are paint. When you are in the shadows, you are painted. When you are in the sun, you are not painted.

4. A stick is a dog bone, an "I can't walk very well stick" (cain), a fishing pole, a gun, a bomb, or just a stick.

5. You can fish from the porch swing, but not when it rains halibut. You can also take short flights on the porch swing with AJ as the pilot and JR as the copilot. But since the swing is too high, mom has to agree to be the propeller/engine. Again.

6. It's okay to try to try to cut limbs off if you don't use a real saw. (I stopped that, and said no to, "take my diaper off with the pliers." ) Sheesh.

Wish I could insert here, "And that's not nearly as interesting as what I did today". But for heaven's sake we all know our kids live much "funner" lives than we do. I, for one am embracing it and plan to live vicariously through my children.

The End.
