Sage Siblings
Posted on July 3, 2009 - Filed Under What I am up to
We are driving home from Ghost Ranch, and Sydney is showing off what she has taught herself about the animal kingdom. (Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genera, Species, remember?)
“Sam, do you think you are in the same kingdom as a lion?”
Sam says “Sure!”.
“Right, it is called Mammalia” (she was wrong, it is animalia, and the class is mammalia, but I digress…).
Then she says “Sam, do you think you are in the same kingdom as fungi?”
Sam says loudly “for sure!”.
“Sam, you think you are in the same kingdom as a mushroom?”
“You didn’t say anything about mushrooms, you said Fun Guy!”
I love these little tidbits of conversation. It makes me really glad I journaled so much of it when they were little. As much as you think it is too funny to forget, if you have kids like mine, it happens all the time and no mother’s brain can file it all neatly for instant recall. Well, not this mother anyway.
