I Love Kids And The Funny Things They Say
I met a very serious little man this morning at church - he was about four years old. He was looking at a toy truck he had with him so I commented that it was a pretty nice truck. He looked at me and said, "its ok. I like my train more."
I asked him why did didn't bring his train with him that day and he said very seriously with a bit of a frown on his face, "My train is broke."
"Oh no, what's wrong with it?" I asked.
He thought for a moment, sighed and he said "I don't know. I have to see if I can fix it."
Just then his mom called him and he ran off. It was a few minutes later when I felt him tug on my skirt. He looked up at me and what came out of his mouth sounded just like a grown up, "...now, where was I?"
I had to bite my tongue not to laugh. We had a chat for awhile about why trains were better than trucks. I felt like I learned a lot.
I am curious to find out if his train is fixed next week. I wouldn't be surprised if it is.
