Three year old Nikolai outsmarts his mother

This conversation actually happened last night on the way home:

Mama: "Sorry, sweetie. We can't go to the big yellow toy store, because we have to go home now."
Nikolai: "We live in outer space!"
Mama: "No, we don't live in outer space, we live on planet Earth!"
Nikolai: after a short pause "Planet Earth is in outer space."

I have no argument for that.

dear god. Reminds of telling my mother at the age of 5 that "Time and Space were cousins". My mother still has a hard time with it. It now makes me go cross-eyeed thinking about it.

Haven't checked your blog in a while - 2 GREAT weeks at the beach with Janna and Jacob.

This conversation is so cute and sounds SO much like Matt when he was little. Always coming out with these incredible statements or concepts that made you wonder....

Hope all is well - love to all!
