Morning Conversation

Sam: "Mommy, did you know that I'm white?"

me: "Oh. You are?"

Sam: "Do you know what being white means?"

me: "What does it mean?"

Sam: "It means that when you eat really fast you don't throw up. But if you eat slow, you DO throw up. You also just throw up a lot for no reason."

me: "Really? that's what it means to be white?"

Sam: "I think there's something about skin, too. But mostly it's the throwing up thing."

me: "Oh, okay."

He *is* very, very white.

Perhaps even excessively so.

Who talks to your kids???? Weird thoughts he comes up with. Can't wait for Ava to talk, though I'm sure I'll wish for silence at times!!!

Good thing I eat really fast.

I gotta know: do you have any clue as to where that came from???

the only thing I can think of is him overhearing me tell Steve about how I was worried about him throwing up again because he was so pale...

hee~hee! Aren't they cute??

My clbg (cute little blond girl, age 3.5) just started saying, "I don't want to be white (slight sob), I want to be yellow!!"

I blame my husband for moving us to Asia.
