Funnies

I have not been writing down the kids' funny saying as faithfully. And sadly as they get older and "more sophisticated" there are fewer to report.  But here are a couple

NiNi was calling the place where you buy snacks at basketball games a "confession stand"

The other day we were talking about things people do at weddings and NiNi said clinked her fork on her glass and said "I'd like some toast please."  She thought when people toasted, they were literally asking for some.  Makes total sense to me!

As NiNi was getting dressed for school one morning I noticed the scar on her hip from her bone graft 4 years ago.  I asked her if she remembered the surgery and she said "no".  I had been feeling sad because Ethan has a surgery coming up and I hate seeing the kids scared and in pain. I said to NiNi, "Sometimes I think maybe you guys have been traumatized by your surgeries."  She replied, "Mom, I have a happy life" in a tone that said, "get over it mom."  So I did.
