Tidbits with Timmy
Timmy, my six year old, is wise beyond his years. Though very small in stature, he thinks rather profound thoughts and asks insightful questions. Here’s a snippet of some of our recent conversations.
Me: “And God was very sad because all the people were very bad so he told Noah to build an Ark.”
Timmy: “So He cried so hard and made a flood.”
Makes perfect sense to me.

“Mom, I want to die of old age ’cause when you get a knife in you there’s blood coming out and it really hurts. But when you’re old it’s like you’re falling asleep.”
If only that were true for everyone!

or one of my favorites…
“Mom, would you rather go to school butt naked or in your underwear?”
A moment for thoughtful consideration. “Uh, my underwear.”
“or your clothes?” Muffled giggles.
“My clothes.”
“Ut, oh. You already said your underwear. Now you have to go to school in your underwear.” Chuckles of delight.
Well, I did mention he was six!
