At the dinner table while eating her hamburger, my five-year old daughter Shelby said "This is good chicken." Dad said, "Honey, it is not chicken, it is cow." She looked at Dad and said questioningly, "COW?", I nodded and she looked at the hamburger and said "Poor cow." and took a big bite out of it

Ever since moving from Utah, a relatively bug free state, to Texas, my 3 year old daughter has been fascinated by the "cock-a-roaches." I thought I'd drawn the line one morning when I asked her what she wanted for breakfast and she replied "cock-a-roaches." I emphatically told her, "No, you may not have cockroaches for breakfast!" (I later figured out that what she was really asking for was Coco-Roos, the generic ceral that is like CocoPuffs. Unfortunately, they are the same color as the bugs in question, and now I can't bring myself to eat them any more.)

When our t.v. in our family room broke. We brought out an old black and white from the great grandparents. My three year old son Dominic of course was very excited because of it being so small. The best part was when he exclaimed with excitement" hey mom it has the same stuff on it as our big T.V."
