did you just say that?!?

We have been having some pretty entertaining conversations lately and I feel like I need to share.

Heaven-
Zach: Mommy, Why do people have to go to heaven?
Mommy:Well honey, sometimes they are sick or they get hurt really bad, and sometimes it is just their time to go so God takes them up to Heaven where they can do a different job for him.
Jolie: Where is Heaven? Is it in outter space?
M: That's a good question. (this is me stalling, I don't really know howe to awnser in a way she will understand)
Z: (interupts the end of my statement) No, Jolie. Heaven is everywhere, all around us... well except for in cities, and towns... ya, Heaven is everywhere out of town.
M: (oh buddy, sometimes I feel that way too. but for the most part that is a really good description in a way the kids can understand) WOW, what a great description buddy.

Lunch-
Mommy: Hey Zach, what do you want for lunch?
Zach: I already ate.
M: (HUH?!?) What'd you have?
Z: A sandwich. (very matter of fact)
M: what was on it? roast beef?
Z: No, it had cheese and............honey.(this is when I see the bread and things on a kitchen chair)
M:(EWWW!) WOW!! (stalling, trying to recover myself. and yes there is a smile on my face, no need to crush independance.) Was it good?
Z: Ya, really good. I ate all.
M: (Jaw on the floor. EWWWW!) Wow! Good job buddy!

Buttocks-
Zach: What's a Buttocks? is it your butt?
Jolie: (before her human body unit at school) No, I think it is like a fart. Like your BUTT TALKS! (yes, she was serious, and not tyring to make a joke.)





What can I say, they see the world from a different perspective.
