Things Kids Say

One thing I love about having a blog is it acts like a diary. I can look back through the years and remember things that happened in our lives that I would likely otherwise forget. Alex makes me laugh with a lot of the things he comes up with and I need to start documenting them a bit more.

A: When I grow up I'm going to be a black ninja.
Me: What do black ninjas do?
A: They stay up all night. They fight bad guys and they never sleep. And I'm going to wear black gloves when I'm a ninja. Know why? 'Cause black ninjas wear black gloves. And they have swords. Sharp swords. But I'll be wearing gloves. Or I'll be a soldier.
Me: What do soldiers do?
A: They sleep in the rain and the mud. They fight. They have weapons. But the only weapons they have are their hands. Isn't that funny?

If I have any say in the matter he'll be something a little less dangerous when he grows up!!
