First Words

I rose early this morning. The combination of the heat, the early morning sun, and all the new thoughts spinning in my head due to the workshop I am attending this week for work left me wide awake by 6:15. This gave me the pleasure of being the first to greet each of my kids this morning. It seemed to me that the first things out of their mouths in the morning presented an interesting window into their minds.

James: "Good morning, Mom. Look at the time [on the digital clock]. 6:59. It is the same rightside-up and upside-down."

Maggie: "Where are my clothes? Who took them? They were right here."

John: "Mom, wasn't it funny, a long time ago, when I took a drink and we all laughed? ... And I burped?"
