sun

October 28th, 2008

The following is a real conversation my 3 year old had with me this morning.  His preschool is going to go on a little fieldtrip to the park to rake leaves and jump in them.

Luke- “Mom, I’m excited about going to rake the leaves, but the sun is really bugging me.” (We’ve had some beautiful sunny days this last week.)

Me - “Why is the sun bugging you?  I know for a fact that he really likes you - he called me on the phone to tell me.”

Silence - I can actually hear the wheels turning in his 3 year old brain.

Luke - “Mom, the sun doesn’t have a phone!”

Busted - my days of making crazy crap up are coming to an end.

It bums me out - if I can’t mess with my kids who am I going to mess with?

    That is sad. My kids used to laugh like crazy when I said someone had a frog in their throat. Then, they’d say, no it’s in my eye, my ear, my hair, etc. Now, they get that it’s an expression. So sad.
