Let me set the scene for you....
Today...on the couch...Cole is next to me and we are watching Carter play in his jungle on the floor. Carter is amazing in that he can now scoot himself around in a circle on his jungle mat. He likes to play with the parrot mirror the most. It's bright red.
Cole: Mom, where did George W. (yes..he said it!) Bush go?
Me: Um....(stunned!) well he went back to Texas. He should stay there.
Cole: So he had to move out of the White House for Barack Obama?
(again.......shocked and amazed at my genius child...I slowly pick my chin up off the couch cushions)
Me: Yes.
Cole: Then Barack Obama will go back to Texas when he's done with the White House?
Me: No...Barack Obama will go back to Chicago.
Cole: Okay. Mom, can I have a fruit snack now and watch Backyardigans?
Me: (in a daze....what just transpired between us...this kid is 4!!! years old!) Sure honey.
...............and there you have it.
