As I'm cutting E's pancakes this weekend:
E: So if you make one vertical line and one horizontal line then you have quarters, right?!
Mama: (as jaw drops and hits the table) Well, yes, yes you do.
E: And if you make just one vertical line then you get halves, right?
Mama: (nodding speechless)

Tonight on our family bike ride:
E: Personification is a long word, right Mama?
Mama: Yes, it sure is. Do you know what it means?
E: When animals talk.
Mama: Pretty much. : 0

Again, way to go kindergarten teachers!! Impressive work. Three weeks into school and he has learned so so much!!!
Then as we're eating at a diner tonight E sees news on the TV and he points.
E: Is that movie non-fiction?
Mama: Well, yes, I guess it kind of is.
E: Because then it's true facts. That looks like non-fiction.
Mama: It's called news though. It's not a movie. It's for grown ups.

Is it possible he hasn't seen news before?! We never watch tv at home (except for movies or netflix). Wow. Things I don't think of until we're in an odd situation like this...
