Obsolete Children

I overheard this conversation a few days ago. Evin believes it happened differently but it's my blog and my memory, so I am posting it this way:

Kesiah walks in to the room with a little booklet.
Kesiah: Look mommy.
Mom: So, do you like that catalog?
Kesiah (with great excitement): It's a boring book! What is it?
Mom: It's a book of things to buy.
Kesiah: Oh... for boring kids?
Mom: For grown-ups.
Kesiah: Grown-ups are boring kids.

There is so much more truth to that statement than she could possibly know! One of my favorite quotes is: "We don't stop playing because we get old. We get old because we stop playing."
