Out of the Mouths of Babes

Roman has cracked me up today, so I didn't want to miss a chance to preserve this memory forever.

We were in the car, and out of the blue he says "Mom, you're a baby making machine."  Then he says, "Wait, what's a baby making machine?", as if he is double checking himself.  I explained it's someone who has a lot of babies.  He sat there for a few seconds and then replied "Yes, that's what you are, a baby making machine."  Thanks for that.

Moments later, we were still in the car and we were listening to "Kids Place" on XM radio.  Some toddler song was playing and a verse in it was "Life is so easy...".  Without missing a beat, Roman says "Life is hard!"  He's five.  Really?!

Tonight, as I was clipping his fingernails after he got out the tub, he says "I can't wait to go show Daddy how gorgeous I am when you're done".  I giggled.  He says, "Wait, what does gorgeous mean?"  I explained that it is someone who is "handsome, good looking, cute".  He says, "Then why did you laugh??"  I had to inform him that he is gorgeous ALL the time, not just when he gets his fingernails clipped.  He accepted that reply.
