I found this gem of an article (through my Facebook news feed, of course) full of quotes from kids answering questions about marriage, kissing, and relationships. All of the answers are pretty hilarious but these really take the cake in my book.
"Twenty-three is the best age [to get married] because you know the person FOREVER by then." - Camille, age 10
"The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do." - Howard, age 8
Another one of my favorites answers the question, "when is it okay to kiss someone?" The answer, by a lovely little girl of the ripe old age of 7 - "when they're rich."
Someone is teaching his kid the right kind of morals. Let's hope she starts liking boys for their winning personalities, good looks, and charming aromas. Kids do say the darndest things.
Reading a bunch of answers from children always makes me wonder what it would be like if dogs could talk. They just have such expressive faces sometimes and they are just like kids! (Except they never grow up to be adults who can have intelligent conversations and take care of themselves.) When I'm outside with Oscar and Jack (and just loving on Oscar) Jack will stand at attention towards the door looking inside waiting for someone to come to the door. He gets so excited sometimes (I guess thinking about someone else coming outside) that I look up to make sure that there isn't anyone there. (Most of the time there isn't.) While I think it's silly it's also extremely adorable.
I also finally got a picture of Oscar in his hide out. He likes to put half of his body under my carwhich is why I ended up accidentally running over him (slightly running over him).
I also made pound cake today! (For the impending Hall Reunion that I'm actually looking forward to.)
