Out of the mouths of babes

In our pre-India life, this was the title of my blog... a place where I recorded the funny things Hannah and Matthew said. I haven't touched it since we left. Since the blog you're reading encompasses "our life in India", I'm going to post it all here.

+ Recently our neighbors (from SPAIN!) arrived in India and were walking outside our house. They have twin 2-year-old girls, one of whom wears an eye patch sometimes to correct a lazy eye. When Matthew saw her, he shouted, "Look, Daddy, she's a pirate!" Shae quietly assured him that she just had an owie on her eye. "I know, Daddy. But she's a pirate!"

+ As we passed a dog on the street yesterday, Matthew exclaimed, "Look, he's eating his butt!" (Sorry, Mom, he learned 'butt' from a movie (and my friend Leah). We really try to use 'bottom' at our house."

+ And speaking of butts, Hannah suggested today that we could call our bottoms "cushions" because "they are kind of comfy."

+ Hannah to Daddy, "You really like TV." Pater familias took note.

+ Hannah is response to "What do you like about India?": "Everything but the bad smells and the bad food."

More to come... there's lots I've missed.
