Starly?

SO both my kids love stuffed animals...and have plenty of them. BUT, both of them have their one favorite that goes everywhere with them. Jake has had Pluto since he was almost 4 and it has been on every vacation, etc. Jessica finally latched onto 1 last January. Then with the move, and unpacking tons of boxes I had told Jessica that Starly was lost FOREVER!

UNTIL today- Jessica found her under the couch!!!

Conversations with a 5 yr old

At Dinner
5 yr old- Mommy, where does food come from?
Mommy-We buy it from the store.
5 yr old- Where does the store get it?
Mommy-The store gets food from farms and factories that process it.
5 yr old- We should just make our own bread so we don’t have to go to the store.
Mommy-We would still have to go to the store to get the ingredients to make the bread.
5 yr old- No, we could just get them online.

At a restaurant:
Daddy- after we buy the house, we don’t get to go out to eat all the time.
5yr old- Why not?
Daddy- Because we won’t have the money to go out all the time because we have to pay for the house.
5 yr old- Then you will have to go to the bank.

On the way to grandma's house:
5 yr old- Mommy, You know your mommy and daddy and daddy’s mommy and daddy?
Mommy- Yes.
5 yr old- Did you know they are all like the same age?
