One day the lady I babysat for told me what happened when her inquisitive 2 year old daughter met her grandparents for the first time: Carolyn was sitting on her grandfather's lap staring at his very bald head (and very thick eyebrow hair). With the perplexed look on Carolyn's face her grandfather asked her what was wrong. Her reply was "Grandpa Tony, you hair fell off you head and in you eyebrows". She's eight now but it still makes me laugh.

My son, Eric was 2 at the time. We were singing songs as we drove down the road and I began singing "Row Row Row Your Boat." As we sang we got louder and louder and at the end of the third round I heard the inevitable "Again! Again!" As I proudly belted out another round Eric began to crack up. When I finished singing he was still giggling. From the backseat I heard him singing "wipe his butt a dream!" I quickly realized he had misunderstood my song. I then had to explain to my two year old that the words were "life is but a dream" He still (a year and a half later) likes his version better. In a recent Sunday school class the teacher was using little songs to fill up time. She began inging "Row Row Row your Boat" and I saw that familiar look come over my son's now three and a half year oldface. I had to quickly whisper in his ear "DON"T sing "wipe his butt a dream" The words are "Life is but a dream"! I will never be able to listen to that song without smiling!

We were going for a two hour drive with Kara (4 at the time)and I suggested that she visit the bathroom before we started or she would "have to hold it". Well, Kara informed me she couldn't hold "it", because "it" would run right through her fingers.

After throwing up for twenty minutes, my four year old (Ashley) was a bit wound up. Since it was 3AM, I was elected to keep her company. As we sat on my bed, she began thinking... "Mommy, how did the germs get inside me and make me sick?" "Well, they could have been in the house, at your school, on your hands..." "Did you open the door and let the germs in the house?" "Well, no, but sometimes..." Ashley proceeds to punch me in my arm. "Well, THIS is for letting the germs in my house!!"
