Out of the Mouths of Babes

Here are some of my favorite parent posts from the past several weeks:

Noah: daddy, check out the blood and scab on my knee!!
Hey daddy, where does the scab go when it gets better?

Me: it just falls off somewhere.

Noah: but where?

Me: I don't know man, no one knows

Noah: well...I'm just going to keep my eye on it forever....

On the way home from school:

Austin: My four girls.
Me: Four girls?? Do you play with any boys in your class?

Austin: No, only girls.
Me: Why do you only play with girls?
Austin: Because they're beautiful.

Out today for a quick trip with my girls.  Adonia says, "Mom did you know that is a pond?"  I reply, "You're so smart I didn't think you knew that." She smiles content with herself then yells, "...and look up there, those are seagulls!"  "No babe, seagulls don't live there." She looks at me for a second then says, "Oh duh, I meant 'pond-gulls'". :-)  I just love her!
