Conversations with kids

Yesterday Landon and I were in the car and drove by some beautiful tulips. Of course, being the tulip lover that I am, commented on how much I love them, they are beautiful, gosh what pretty colors...etc..etc.... You get the picture. Here was Landon's reply:

"Mom, when you die I'll premate you and tulips together so you can be together."

It took me a minute to understand what he meant. "Premate" was supposed to be cremate. Yes, it's amazing that a kid of age 10 would even know about cremation. I guess he listens to adults sometimes. Anyway, it was a funny thing to hear him say despite the morbidity of it.

Here is another funny conversation that happened today...

While sitting in the car at the Arbys drive thru Landon was in the passenger front seat and Shelbie was in the back.

Landon: Hey, Shelbie. I heard that if you hit someone in the arm pit hard it will make them poop.

Shelbie: No way.

Landon: Ya, really!!

Shelbie: Ok, Landon. Lift up your arm and let me hit you.

**This is where I chimed in and said don't hit, blah blah blah and I said I don't want Landon pooping in my car. This was followed by laughter and more talk of poop.

Shelbie: Ok. I won't hit you hard. Just let me hit you a little and you see if you get the urge.

The poop talk, the hitting, the laughter went on for quite a while along with them wanting me to raise my arm to see if I would poop my pants.

Gosh I love these silly kids.
