During my visit to Maryland one of my three-year old twin grandsons noticed how much his mommy’s stomach had shrunk after the birth of the their new younger brother and asked:
“What happened to your belly?”
His mommy replied, “That’s where your baby brother was until he was born.”
He thought for a moment and asked, “Did I have a baby brother in my belly?”
With Love,

Great!
Thank you, David.

Sounds like a sensible question to me. Ah, how I love what comes out of the mouths of babes.
Me too. I just wish I could remember more of them. I’m usually so busy cracking up that I forget what was said. Thank you for commenting.

When we were parenting our own young ones, we didn’t have time to record their funny yet wise comments. I thought I’d be better at that now that I’m a ‘grand’ parent, but like you say, we get so immersed in the humor at the time, we forget to write it down. But you’re doing a good job at it with your blog!
I just love kids
That makes two us–especially when they’ve been parented well and/or fundamentally good people. Thank you for commenting, Annette.

I wish I could get rid of my belly, but no baby in me just fat
I too carry more weight than I’d prefer.

I love the things kids say Russ! ❤

Russ
makes sense to me, and so cute!
Me too. Kid logic. You are blessed with experiencing much more of it than most with your teaching role.
