131. Conversation

We’re in the car driving to go out to dinner when the following exchange between The Husband and our 4-year-old takes place:

Short: You’re not much smart, Pop.
The Husband: But I feel smart!
Short: Well, you don’t look it.

64. Eavesdropping

So I am driving Tall and his pal, both age 6, to summer camp. Their conversation in the car goes something like this:

Pal: Tall, have you ever gone skydiving?

Tall: (without hesitation) Yes.

Me: (??)

Pal: So have I.

Tall: When?

Pal: A long time ago. I was five.

Tall: Did you like it?

Pal: Well, the thing is, my parachute did not open and that is why I have this scar on my eye (pointing to non-existent scar). But now it's healed up. I jumped out of a helicopter.

Tall: (nonchalant) That's cool.
