mmm...mmm...good!

Our three-year old, Noah, has some hearing trouble, and a slight speech delay. He can't make the sounds [k] or [g] yet. We do therapy at home every day.

 Here was a funny conversation from this morning:

 

Mom: Noah, where's your (some random) book?

Noah: It's in the tar.

Mom: It's in the car.

Noah:  in the tar.

Mom: c..c...car.

Noah: c...c...tar.

Mom: c...c... c...ar.

Noah: (long pause and a mischeivous smile)   It's in the van.

 

Our 6-year old, Carter, is also a hoot, via this conversation yesterday.

 

Carter: Mom, what's for lunch?

Mom: Soup.

Carter: What kind?

Mom: Chicken noodle.

Carter: Homemade? Or the other kind?

Mom: What other kind?

Carter: You know, Cannibals!

Mom: (laughing hysterically) Carter, do you know what a cannibal is?

Carter: No.

Mom: It's a person that eats other people!

Carter: (shocked) They put people in our soup?? I just want the homemade.

The conversations you have with children are a hoot. Sometimes you just wonder where their minds came up with it. Have a great day.
