Hang around preschoolers enough, and you will hear some very entertaining commentary.? Take an example heard this weekend while SuburbanGrandpa was visiting.? We were all sitting at the table eating dinner.? The fact that 3 adults and 3 kids were all sitting and eating at the same time is a shockingly rare occasion in our house, but not the subject of this post, so I digress.
The conversation was pretty standard.? Topics included Thing 2’s upcoming 4th birthday party.? Who was the fastest runner.? Who was everyone’s favorite animal.? Then completely out of the blue:
Thing 2: Grandpa has no hair on his head.
A true statement, as SuburbanGrandpa is somewhat follically challenged.? We all know kids are brutally honest.? He continued with the honesty.
Thing 2: But he does have hair on his ears.? Like Gargamel.? (See previous post about his interest in the Smurfs).
Hahahaha! Poor Ralph! That’s awesome. Little consolation to Grandpa, but awesome just the same.
