Kids say the darndest things and my apes are no exception. The particularly funny one in our fam is 5-year-old Sara. The stuff that comes out of her mouth is mind-blowing. So here’s a funny/cute “Sara story” for you.
SCENE: Sara in the tub babbling away about things that are “twins” and “id-den-ti-cal.” Conversation begins:
ME: Wow Sara, you are SO smart!
Sara: Oh yes. I am very smart.
ME: How did you get so smart? Are you smart like Mommy (*hint*hint*)? Or smart like Daddy?
(pause) Sara: I am smart like myself.
ME: Good answer! You will be a bright, successful, wonderful grown-up someday.
Sara: Oh yes! When I am 16, that will be tu-moungous for me!
ME: What will happen when you are 16? Will you get a car?
Sara: YES! A dark pink car!
ME: Will you be Queen of the Prom?
Sara: On no. I will be a Rock Star!
Mom tears up. Makes mental note to pray that that confidence stays with her forever.
END SCENE.
So sweet! My son used to tell me he was born the boss when we’d try to establish a familial hierarchy! Love your blog!
