Conversations v.3453

We have had a number of funny comments and questions lately.  Here are the two I remember:

1.  We were unpacking some Christmas decorations yesterday.  It was December 1st and I was anxious to pull out the advent calendar.  I was kind of building it up to get the kids excited.

Mama: Oh!  I love decorations for Christmas!
Kids: OOOOooooo!
Mama: Here is the one I was looking for!
Kids: Yes! Yes! Yes! YES!
Mama: (Lifts up the advent calendar, holding it so they can't see the front) Do you know what this is??
Amelia: It is a Jesus curtain!!



2.  I was brushing William's teeth tonight in the bathroom.  He was very quiet, which is unusual for him.  Finally, I asked him what he was thinking about.

William: Why is there only a girl tooth fairy?
Mama: What?
William: Why is the tooth fairy a girl?  Why isn't there a tooth fairy for boys?  You know, one who isn't a fairy.  Maybe like the tooth elf.
Mama: Huh.  Good question.  How do you know the tooth fairy is a girl though?
William:  I just know because all fairies are girls. (big sigh)
