Quote of the day.

Actually from last week....but when discussing the health care reform bill that passed, and showing video of people who were against it saying, "I can't ask my constituents to pay for something they believe is morally wrong." Oh, but except it's legal. Which leads to The Daily Show: "It's not like I can walk into the zoo with its $20 admission fee and say, here, here's $18.50, I don't like zebras."

What I learned today from my 6-year-old.

That those four little boys in that book aren't really jumping over that tree. It's probably that the tree is really far away. (Wow, I think, someone had to explain perspective to me in maybe, junior high??) This made me very proud.

That it's still cool for a six-year-old boy to hold his mom's hand all the way to school. This made me very happy.

That there is a cuss word that's the f-word. Eff. You. See. Kay. That's right. He spelled it right out. So unfortunately I learned that there aren't many grown-up secrets in this world that six-year-olds don't know already. The innocence of children is lost. This deeply saddened me.
