Overheard

I'm lying in bed as most sane people are at 2 in the morning when it occurred to me that Mateo said three things today that are worth writing down. (Don't worry, I didn't get up in the middle of the night to do this, I had actually just gone to bed.) I get a lot of comments from people about making sure I write down some of the things he says. So, here are three that made me laugh today.

1) "Is Oscar in there?" Mateo's question when he spotted a metal trash can with a lid while at Itasca State Park.
2) "...I was watching Kung Fu Panda. And then I pooped." A true statement explained to his new friend Madison about his experience at seeing his first movie in the theater.
3) "Are those Bush's beans? I don't like Bush's beans." A question and explanation told to our neighbors (who were having us over for dinner) when asked if he would like some baked beans on his plate.



Something I've especially begun to learn over the past several months: Kids really do say the darndest things.
