Can't Argue With That
Keeping my 6 year old grandson for the evening, and the conversation went like this.
Him:..."My brain controls what I do, right"?
Me...."Yes, sometimes without you even thinking".
Him..."So, if I do something wrong, it's not my fault, because my brain told me to, right"?
Me...."No, you control what you do".
Him..."That's silly, how can I control what I do, if my brain controls me"?
Me....Hmmmmm.
Later
Him....."I'm me and you're you, right"?
Me...".Yes, you're me and I'm you".
Him..."Well, I wish you would stop getting me in trouble".
"Shut Up and go to bed"!
"Says you or me"?
Under my breath: "Smart Ass".

Yea, had to turn my head. :-)
Same child that at the age of 3 when he traded his pull ups for big boy undies, called my attention to the fact they had a pocket in the front. LOL.
Thanks for the visit.

I don't dare tell him that, he has too many shirts that have already gone to his head.
LOL

I always loved the honesty and logic of children - they have a tendency to say what they see :-)
This really made me smile :-)
