Lost in Translation
T-Daddy and Red Rover enjoy great father/son bonding time while making the daily morning commute to school. Only once in a blue moon am I privy to the secrets and stories they share. Today was that day and since it is such a rare occasion, I thought I'd spread the news. This is mommygossip after all, right? And this gossiping gal is true to her name! Here's the scoop…
T-Daddy
(speaking to Red Rover): I'm so proud of you for playing with Bright Eyes yesterday, R2. His dad has been really sick and has been in the hospital a lot lately.
Red Rover:
Why is his dad sick?
T-Daddy:
Well, he had a problem with his body. The doctors had to cut him, so they could get inside and fix the problem.
Red Rover
(with an incredulous look): Inside his body???? How did they even fit, dad?

That is just too funny. Isn't great how we think we are explaining it so that our kids will understand but then they take it to the next level. Awesome.

OMG! That is so cute! I love how kids distort words and come up with their own, adorable meaning.
Have a great weekend!

My parents explained surgery to me when I was little. They said doctors send mini army soldiers inside the body through the nose. Made sense to me.
That's too cute.

When I was a kid and we had the well cleaned I was convinced that little men were going to arrive to clean the well.
They never did.
I'm still waiting
