Kids Say The Darndest Things

Is that how you spell Darndest?

First, this a.m. Ajers was checking out his lunch box to see what I had made for him. I had inadvertently put a cocktail napkin in his lunch box -- one that had a drawing of a martini glass filled with a pink cosmo and garnished with a slice of lime. On the napkin, the phrase: CHEERS!

Had I seen it, I would have never put a napkin like that in his lunch to take to school.

Ajers asked Scott if he would replace the napkin for him with another. His comment to Scott: "This is inappropriate for me to take to school." A first-grader. Geeze.

And then, completely unrelated, but nonetheless, a cute curiousity from Diva. As we were sitting in my office together, she glanced over at some pictures of Scott and me. This must have reminded her that he and I were her parents and for the most part, in love, and this question sparked from her little mind:

"How come you never 'slobber kiss' with dad?"

Good question, Diva, good question. Have you ever heard of it called that? Gross.
