My daughter, 4 years old, explaining how hawks operate in China?!?!?

Daddy, you just can’t forget ok? You have to keep it in your head. It keeps falling out of your head so that is way you can’t remember. Mommy never forgets; well maybe she does sometimes, but just keep it in your head ok?
My daughter, 4 years old. Reminding me to make her some paper crowns in the morning.

Daddy?

Yes Charlie?

Daddy, ippa iPad peese?

You want to watch the iPad?

Yeah.

Okay.

Yay. Tank you daddy. Binoo!

- My 1 1/2 year old son asking to watch Toopee and Binoo videos on the iPad. Wow. Times have changed. What about just hoping to see good old school Looney Toons on the TV and being sad when you missed it and have to wait another week to see them again? Now my son is asking for videos on demand at a time when he can barely talk.

This weekend we went on the Santa train - a local tourist train that has a Christmas version where Santa visits all the kids in their seats. When asked how she liked it my daughter responded:



I liked Santa. He didn’t hit or poke me. Daddy, did you know that some Santa’s do that?



I am not sure what Santa she has been seeing but I need to find out…

Daddy, did you know that my toys like to eat pumpkins? They do. With ants on them too! They like to eat pumpkins with ants, towels and broken heads.
My daughter. Okay, what the hell?! I have no idea where this conversation came from, and whose broken heads?!
