After singing "Old MacDonald" today, I asked Jackson what he would have on a farm...
"Butterflies.
pause
"PJs"
pause
"Portipines, and a TRUCK!"
Laying in bed with Caroline tonight I was showing her how she would be 5 "fingers" old for only a few more hours. Then grabbing the teachable moment I flashed my 5 fingers 7 times plus my pointer finger to show her how many 5s there are in my age, stressing how she will be 6 tomorrow and I will be 36. (I was shocked myself at how many times my hand had to open and shut to get to 35!) She then said...
Caro: "You're not young, " with a bit of an exasperated sigh and smile.
Me: "No, I guess... not."
Caro: "Wow! That's like a 'Heads up!'"
