Lost in Translation

Following the devastating tidal wave in Japan, even little children seek understanding.  From a friend:

Tonight L asked me what caused the salami in Japan to get so big. That's right, the salami.

 The Japanese probably wish it had been a salami!  Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to the victims of the tsunami.

Good Eats

From a friend:

Took C (3) to the mall with me. After a few hours of shopping, he wanted lunch. Where should we eat? He grabbed my hand and dragged me through the mall, finally stopping in front of a store. "Let's eat in HERE!" he said excitedly. We were staring into Victoria's Secret.

 Dad's response to the whole thing: "Like father, like son!"

No Guilty Pleasures Allowed!

From a pregnant friend:

Me: quietly enjoying my bowl of Frosted Flakes

P (6): "You know those aren't good for you, right?" 

grrrrr......

One Of These Things Is Not Like the Other...

Our 4 year old niece, B, introduced her mom to her pretend family today.  There was a sister with her name, a brother with her brother's real name, a dad with her dad's name... and a mom named Goo!

You know you must be a cool mom when you are the only one with an imaginary alter ego with a name like that!

Too True!

The holes in our 4 year old niece's pants keep getting bigger. When her mom questioned her why this was, she told it like it was:

"I like to STINK my fingers in them."
