Reading a book about lions

Me: “Lions are very large, and have long manes around their heads.”

Levi: “What is a mane?”

Me: “The long hair here around his face and ears.”

Levi: “I don’t like his mane. Why did you get me this book?”

Me: “You asked for a book about real lions.”

Levi: “I don’t want a lion book any more, I want a tiger book.”

Me: “Next time we go to the library you can get book about tigers.”

Levi: Closing the book, “I think we should go back tomorrow, and you need to make better choices.”

  1. The kid's got a point. Although, does he realize you could choose to walk out of the room?

    Also, spilled milk. Have a picture somewhere (maybe on our website) of milk spilled all over the entry way to the house. Bought 5 minutes earlier at grocery store. That's fun.

    Finally, my 5 year old sings "Boom, Boom, Pow" and "Fire Burning" every night before bed. If you're not familiar, check it out.

  3. Sometimes I think I should have a camcorder on my son at all times to catch some of the things he says. That was too funny.
