Kid Talk

Today in the car as we approached Jamie's daycare:
Jamie: "I see it!"
Me: "What do you see?"
Jamie: "My class room with all the tiny people in it!"

On a recent morning, after removing her pacifier and putting it in her crib for safekeeping:
Jamie: "I put it in my baby cage."

Last week at the county fair, while deciding what to eat:
KarlaRose: "Of course we must have the obligatory elephant ear."
Karl: "Whoa! We'd better have the ceremonial elephant ear too!"

As luck would have it we were able to have both the obligatory and ceremonial elephant ears without additional expense. The teenager taking the cash at the 4H booth said, "These are small, take two." The ones we received were the size of hubcaps. Apparently for full value they should have been the size of the whole tire.
