The Inspiration

We were visiting my parents and my grandmother was there. As we were leaving to head home, our 5-year-old kept hugging his great-grandmother over and over and telling her, "I just can't stop hugging you!" My grandmother was loving it! After a couple of minutes of this, we were finally able to convince him to join us in the car to leave. Giving her one last squeeze, he said to his great-grandmother, "Bye! Call me when you die!"

This is our inspiration. The truly hilarious, way-better-than-fiction, actual sayings and experiences with the wee little folk around us is what this blog is all about. We invite you to share the joy!

You Know... The Pants!

Our 8 year-old daughter, A, announced to us at dinner that she was doing Science in Science. “No really, I am doing Science in Science!” We thought that was really great that she was doing "science in science", but weren't quite sure what that meant. She told us, “We’re learning about what everyone has. Mommy and I have the same thing, Daddy and I have the same thing, because of, you know… the pants!” When we looked puzzled, she shot us the “C’mon, you know what I’m talking about” look: “You know, the pants!” A second later, the light came on and Daddy asked, “Do you mean the genes?” A, matter-of-factly, “Yup, that’s it!”
