Guest Post: Overheard

This conversation took place yesterday in the car.

Ella: "Mom, Dad, did you know that some animals are nocturnal and only come out at night?"

Mom/Dad: "We did, where did you learn that?"

Ella: "At library time yesterday at school. Animals like bats and owls are nocturnal."

Will (after long pause): "Panthers are nocturnal, too. I'm not saying there are any panthers around here, but I know they're nocturnal."

Dad (after long pause): "Beavers are nocturnal, too."

Ella/Will: "Yeah, beavers, too."

Oh good, now we can be friends again. You guys totally tried to give me the runaround changing your blog address and not telling me. Well I've found you now, be afraid, very afraid.

And Jon, you're killing me.

Quick question Cher, Amy said that you have the same problem as me (son with skinny waist, and long legs). She said you get a particular brand that fits that need, what is it?

Leah, I get the kids' pants at JCPenney, the Arizona brand has SLIM sizes. Or lately (I can't believe I am going to say this out loud) I have gotten adjustable waist pants at Walmart and they are actually holding up better than the JCP ones. Boys get holes in the knees!
