The other day Freda says, "There's something i don't understand."
"What's up honey?"
"You know, before there was dinosaurs? Like before there were people?"
"Yeah?"
"Where did the people come from?"
It's the second time she's asked us and honestly, I was not expecting this conversation for another handful of years.
Our response was simple.
"Many different people believe many different things about where we came from."
The rest of the conversation I consider private as we explained our beliefs.
She's an individual. She has her own likes, dislike, beliefs, tastes, opinions, ideas...and we treat her that way. It's my job as a parent to keep her in between the lines and afford her the opportunity to eclipse my accomplishment in life.
And shes thriving. IMHO.

"It's Charley"
I call home this morning at 7:21 a.m. yeah I know, it was early but I had really important information.
Mandy calls back a couple minutes later. She said Freda heard the phone and bolted out of bed for it. Then she comes wandering back in with the phone and says "It was Charley."
mandy asks "How do you know it was poppy?"
"Because when I got to the room I heard him say "You've reached the McCoy's, we can't make it to the phone right now..."
HA!
