Evolution

This morning James and I are unsuccessfully trying to sleep past 6am on a Saturday morning and we are joined by the little one.  He starts asking his usual string of questions and it goes something like this:

“Mama, why is you so big and Daddy is GIANT?”

“Well, we’re grown-ups.  Someday you’ll be big like a grown-up, too.”

“Yeah, I was a little baby.”

“That’s right.  You started as a little baby, and then you became a little kid, and then you’ll be a big kid, and then you’ll be a grown-up, too.”

“And then you and Daddy and Jakey and me will all be gwown-ups?”

“Exactly.”

“Yay!  Den we can weach da wemote contwol!”
