Last night Taylor and I went on a walk. Well, I was walking; he was skateboarding next to me and I asked him, “Why did you want a skateboard?”
Taylor: “Bored”
Me: “Well, what about homework? And chores? And spending time with your loving Mama?”
Taylor: “Um, that’s what I’m doing right now.”
Me: “Oh, yah, you are sooooo lucky that I am soooooo cool. I’m like the Lorelai Gilmore of Princeville.”
“Except I’m a bit chubbier than her.”
“And blonder”
Taylor: “And you’re not as pretty.”

Wow. Kids say the darndest things, huh? I’m glad mine can’t talk in complete sentences yet.
By the way, I think you’re just as pretty as Lauren Graham! Take that, Taylor!

Jenny,
Thanks!
When we got home, I told my husband that he needed to teach Taylor to talk to girls. Otherwise, he’ll be the boy telling his girlfriend, “Yah, those make your hips look HUGE!”

officially, I am all about personal freedoms and the right to free speech. Unofficially, I think I would have grounded him if I was you! Or at least given him some scary pamphlets about STD’s in full on color.
