Things Kids Say

Me: Mac guess who gets to chaperone your field trip on Monday

Mac: Who?

Me: I do

Mac {looking shocked}: But you are just a lawyer

Me: {looking puzzled!} Well Mrs. Slay asked me if I wanted to help chaperone

Mac: When I get to school I’m going to tell Mrs. Slay thank you so much for letting my mommy chaperone when really she is just a lawyer!

Later in the day I asked if he knew what a chaperon was.  I figured he had no idea and that is why he was shocked that I was going to be one.  Wrong!

Mac: Yes, its someone who goes with the teacher and helps with all the kids on field trips.

Guess Mac thinks being a chaperone is much harder and takes a lot more skill than being a lawyer.  I’m starting to think he might be right.  I will find out on Monday!

Mac got upset the other night when the babysitter accidentally knocked over a tower he had built.  After reading books and getting him in bed, she again apologized for knocking over the tower earlier.  Mac’s response, “Its ok.  Jesus would want me to forgive you.”  This mommy is proud!
