quote(s) of the day

Catcher: How many are you?

Me: How old am I?

Catcher: Uh...yes.

Me: 35.

Catcher: Wow. I thought you were three like me.

Like parents for generations before me, I'm not the first to be constantly amazed by what a child has to say on any given day. Here's a smattering of what Catcher said today:

- Um. Why are you wearing those shoes? Those shoes don't look cute with your outfit. Take them off.

- Why do taxis have numbers?

- Scout has short hands.

- Don't talk to me.

- If I don't get dessert tonight I'm going to have bad behavior tomorrow.

- Did you start out as a baby?

- I'm going to Oklahoma at 5:00 in the morning.

- Is that baby going to pop out of your tummy? How do you fix your tummy?
