Out of the Mouths of Babes!

A not so recent conversation with my son:

L: I thinks its time to get rid of Spuddy. (referring to our dog)
Me: Why?
L: I want to trade him for a baby sister like Ben has.

A more recent conversaton:

L: When's the baby done?
Me: July
L: And then when does it go back?
Me: Back where?
L: Inside you.
Me: Well, you were a baby in Mommy's tummy once and you aren't going back in, right?

Reflective silence .... I suspect he is thinking about the fact that a baby is a permanent thing...me, I'm feeling relieved that no one is going back in....its hard enough getting them out in the first place!
