"Boys Are Bigger Than Girls"


Instead of going to church, I spent today babysitting a family of 7 children under the age of 14 while their parents were at the hospital bringing #8 into the world!

The conversations were priceless. Some, um....cannot be repeated :)

But here was one I got a kick out of.

6 y/o boy: Well, Lisa, boys are bigger than girls.

Me: Oh yeah? So why am I bigger than you?

6 y/o boy: (roll of eyes and a "duh, hello" look if I ever saw one) 'Cause you're so much older than me!

Me: (not thinking before I speak) So why's my mommy bigger than your daddy? (my mommy's 6'3")

6 y/o boy: (bigger "duh, hello" look) 'Cause she's so much older than him!

Me: (mental head-palm, quick recalculation): Well why am I bigger than your daddy? (I'm 6'2")

Silence. Apparently 6 y/o boy hadn't thought that far!
