Noted Without Komment


I've found that there are times in my life as a young parent where I'm genuinely shocked by the fact that our little offspring have minds of their own. It's really difficult for me sometimes to get inside their heads (despite the fact that I've always considered myself to be young at heart). So, it's nice every now and again to have a reminder that they are definitely thinking for themselves. Where they pick up what they say, however, is an entirely different story.


Exhibit A: My wife and I are asking our 4 year old son and precious lil' 2 year old daughter what they learned in "school" (a twice weekly Mom's Day Out).
Me: Did you guys learn about any letters?
4 year old son: Lowercase K!!
Mommy: Oh! What words start with a K?
4 year old son: Kite!
Me: Good.
4 year old son: Key!
Mommy: Yeah.
2 year old daughter: KILL!!!
