The other day I picked up Gavin and McKinnley from preschool. We hit the road only to encounter a horrible driver. Since I've spent a year of my life with NY drivers and a while living in LA I really hold no reservations using my horn most of the time (a habit Brent has tried unsuccessfully to break me of for years ) So since they're driving like an idiot I honk my horn. This is the conversation that followed.
Gavin: Why did you beep?
Me: Because they were bad drivers!
Gavin: They were bad guys?!?!
Me: No they were just driving badly.
Gavin: They were driving bad guys?!?!?!
Me: No Gavin they were just not driving very good. They aren't bad guys, just bad drivers.
Gavin: Oh :( (Very disappointed!!!)
Moral: To kids sometimes bad guys are good/cool things!
Also we were making paper snowflakes. I was cutting, they were trying to cut (being only 3 and 4 it's hard to cut through a paper folded over six times) I got done with one, handed it to them to open. Gavin says "Oh wow Terina! That is beautiful!!" McKinnley says "That is so beautiful! Terina how did you make such a beautiful snowflake"
Moral: Appreciate the beauty, even when it's simple and homemade!!
