On Memorial Day we picnicked with friends. We were especially tickled to hear about our friend's son Tyler. The day before his mom had refused his request for a can of Coke. When the seven year-old asked, "Why," she simply countered with, "Because you don't need it." He then complained, "But, Mom, caffeine and violence are my two favorite things!"

ReplyDelete[I've been to Salzburg and visited the Von Trapp family home - how dorky is that??]
Ozlady,
ReplyDeleteI don't think that is dorky at all. The Sound of Music was a great musical. Visiting Salzburg sounds like an incredible opportunity!
Kids say the best things! My son's 1st grade teacher sent home a weekly newsletter that the kids wrote every week about their week. She ALWAYS included a 'comment' that was made during the week. My favorite part! It would always make me laugh.

Kim,
ReplyDeleteKids are great and I think you've given me an idea for a blog. Thanks!
Caffine and violence?
ReplyDeleteI know its only a two part list and he's just a kid but he might want to fix that list up.
Mine?
Food and Sex
Ak-man,
ReplyDeleteNice to see you have your priorities so clearly defined. I am guessing you listed those two in order of importance as well.
I like caffeine and violins too.

ReplyDeleteCaffeine and violins, huh? Now there's a combo.
