Conversation

The other night Mackenzie asked why her aunt Ali had to go to college. I told her Ali needed to go to college so she could get a job. She asked "Will dad have to go to college someday?"
I said, "Dad already went to college before you were born. And so did mom." So then she wanted to know what my job is. I told her my job is being a mom.
Her reply: "BOR-ING!"
I guess I have a long way to go if I'm trying to raise loving, nurturing, mothers-to-be.

Brooklyn cracks me up because every time she gets hurt she says "I'm bleeding!" She also likes to blame her sister even if she is nowhere in sight "Che Che hit arm!"

Last weekend we went to the zoo and I overheard a great conversation. When we were looking at the giraffes, there was a couple by us who had a son about 4.
Dad: "Let's go in the giraffe house and see if we can see the baby giraffe."
Mom: "Ben! The baby giraffe D-I-E-D!"
Dad/Ben: "Sorry, I didn't know!"
