Lately we have been reading to Maxfield a book about dinosaurs. Either in the book or in our conversations about the dinosaurs we talk about how dinosaurs were around a long, long, time ago. I guess it helps Max not be scared to know that T-Rex and friends are not currently on this earth.
Last night my mom was telling a story about how “a long time ago” she rode a train from Philly to Georgia to see my dad when he was in the army.
Max interrupted her and asked, “Did you see any dinosaurs?”
Age and a “long time ago” are all relative.

HAHAHA! Poor Mom-o-Nine! You totally set her up.
I'm guessing if she has nine kids, she's been asked that before... still, it probably doesn't sting any less. ;)
Kids are so cute...you just want to squeeze them until their eyes pop out!
Ooo yes. My daughter asked if 'back in the olden days when you were little, did you ride to school on a Penny Farthing!"
Cheers
That couldn't have come out any better if you scripted it!

My nephews are totally into Dinosaurs thank bob they are getting out of thomas the boring mean train!

LOL. gotta luv it. Maxfield is such a doll. I can't wait till Wyatt starts talking...boy your house is gonna be a riot!

I love when kids come up with what are classic jokes, all on their own.
My kids love Little House on the Prairie and whenever I talk about when I was a kid, they always say "did you have a horse and buggy?" or "you mean, back when you didn't have a cell phone?" (which is true)
Ha ha ha, that's real cute. I'm still waiting for my little ones to come out with something like that to me!
And was Mom-o-Nine amused>!?!
My nine year old wrote a story about cavemen from way back in 1968 this past year at school.
It's nice that I was born two years before cavemen.
