Sheesh!!

While looking at preschools the other day I asked Luke if he liked the one we just saw. His reply, "It's cute and it smells good." At the next school I introduced him to the director and he said, "pleased to meet you." Perfect! Then he follows it up with, "Do you have a baby in your tummy?" while pointing at her stomach. She DID NOT have a baby in her tummy. I stared at her with no response. Maybe we'll choose the one that smelled good.

And Yesterday:

We are at Walgreen's. Luke is in his Spiderman costume (of course). An Older lady starts to talk to him about how cute he is. Quoth Luke, "You are OLD! Look at those wrinkles on her arms! She is OLD!" Again air just flows our of my mouth and I stare awkwardly. What is my problem?! How do I follow these statements up and where is MY mask??


We tell kids to tell the truth, but how do you teach them the subtle nuances of it???
I think I'm in trouble.
