Kids say the funniest things!

So, for weeks now Sarah has been real interested in boogers. She knows when she has them, and sometimes asks mommy to get them. She wants to see them on your finger when you get them out, and she says "Ewww-booger!" and smiles and laughs.

This morning, when I dropped her off with Ms. Gloria, she kept tugging at her ears and sticking her finger in there. I asked her what was wrong, and she grabbed my finger and stuck it into her ear. There was just a little bit of wax in there that I got on my finger. When Sarah saw it, she said, "Mommy, ear booger!".

Ms. Gloria and I both laughed so hard!!!

Sarah's nursery rhymes

I just had to share this funny thing that Sarah has been doing the last two nights---

We just got this Clifford lift-the-flap book at a consignment sale recently. She loves the book already. Each set of pages focuses on a different educational thing--like one page is about colors, one is about shapes, one is about numbers 1-10, and one about letters. The last page open to Clifford and all these kids reading, and the lift-the-flaps are all books, with a nursery rhyme title on the outside, and a verse or two on the inside. Sarah is absolutely infatuated with this last page. In particular, she loves the book cover and verse for two of the rhymes:

!) On the front: "Rain, Rain, Go Away"; on the inside: "Come Again Another Day" (with a cute pic of a little girl with an umbrella in the rain)

2) on the front: "Humpty Dumpty Sat on a Wall"; on the inside: "Humpty Dumpty Had a Great Fall" (with a little pic of humpty falling and breaking)

She is so funny, because for the rain rhyme, she will sing it over and over, and say "Mommy, its raining" and "need umbrella". For the humpty rhyme, she will say "Oh, no!" and then say "Humpty broken" or "Humpty fall down".

She will turn to these pages over and over, and we read the book EVERY night. So cute. Just goes to show you what goes on in her little head, and how she is piecing together these concepts in her mind. She is really smart.
