    that pretty much reminds me of a co-worker. “How are you today?” “I had a sandwich”, “OK, I’m good” “Yes, you can.”; I thought he had some hearing problems for a while but turned out he didn’t discover Google Translate yet back then.

    Little kids are great to talk to, if you take them seriously. They have amazing perspectives.

    I’ve learned far more than what I actually need to know from kids at the school where my mom used to teach.

    I still remember learning “non-sequitur” from Star Trek! Love that term. Good ol’ Spock…

    A first grader told me once that his mom had been in the hospital over the weekend. According to him she had a stomach ache but she was home again. I asked him if her tummy was better. He answered, “ Oh yes, the doctor took the baby out and now she’s fine.”

    heh.. cute.. clever.. you are great, Amanda.. today’s comic reminded me of many an exchange ‘tween me and my youngest.. – Hi daddy, are you home? – Yes, yes I am. – I found Boppy. – Oh, good, did you lose Boppy? – The peanut butter is still on the back of my teeth. – Oh, did mommy make you a sandwhich? – The loudest airplane I ever heard was up there today. – Wow, was it a big one? – Auntie took me potty when my butt made a noise. – I’ll go change my shirt and make some Kool Aid. .. etc, ad infinitum… ;oD

    They have a long way to go to top Ralph Waldo Emerson for non-sequiturs, or even Grateful Dead lyrics.
