Me: I got your nose!
Him: I got a new one!
While walking with a group of second graders to lunch today, I overheard them talking "politics." As they passed the election display in the hall, one of them started talking about how cool "my Uncle Bomma" is. A bunch of others repeated how much they liked "my Uncle Bomma," too.

"Only Mexicans! Because it's so cold!"
"Really?"
"Yes! They live in igloos made from the snow! And they wear big fur coats!"
Oh right. Eskimos.
This morning, completely out of nowhere, my nearly-3 asked "What's a number cruncher?"

None of our friends smoke. The only person my kids had seen smoking was their nan. One day a guy came to visit and he lit a cigarette. My daughter just kept staring at him (she was about 5). I said "what's the matter?". She said "But he's not a nanna". She assumed only nanna's smoked.

(Size, lack of fire breath, interest in eating humans, etc.)
