Out of the Mouths of Babes

Posted by Cindy on September 16, 2008

In preparing to speak to the THINK and CACH homeschool support goups this week, I haven’t had (and probably won’t have) much time to blog. I’m very excited about both of these meetings because I get to see a few long lost homeschooling friends AND meet a few blogging friends! Not to mention, I get to visit with Melissa since one of the meetings is in her neck of the woods! )

Before I sign off for a few days, though, I thought I’d leave you with another Eli post. Toddlers make for great writing material! He’s just 20 months old. You might think that’s too young to be a coniving little stinker, but I’m here to prove you wrong…..

He and I walked into the office where he had overturned a chair.

Him: (Pointing ) Oh! (means: uh-oh)

Me: Oh, no! Who did that?

Him: (without hesitation or batting an eye) Bubby.

Me: No, Caleb didn’t do it. Who did it?

Him: (again, without hesitation) Thithee. (sissy)

Me: No, Mahayla didn’t do it. Who did it?

Him: Daddy.

Me: No, Daddy didn’t do it. Mommy thinks Eli did it. Did Eli do it?
