I had the opportunity to babysit for one of my former babysitting families in my hometown tonight. The following conversations took place during dinner:
4 year old (who was born just weeks before I graduated high school and moved to a different state to go to college): I remember you! You used to babysit me when I was a little kid.
And then this one:
6 year old: I don't understand why people would want to leave their family and move away to college.
8 year old: well, I want to be a dairy farmer when I grow up so I don't really need to go to school for that.
6 year old: I think I want to be a singer when I grow up.
4 year old: When I grow up I want to be in college!

Meet Carson
Lunchtime is one of my favorite times of the day because that's when the stories come out. This story is brought to you by a 6 year old, first grade boy:
"My dog, Carson, is a baby bunny eater. And guess what? My cousin's dog is a baby bunny eater too. One time there was a mommy bunny and 6 babies in our yard. And we let the dogs out. And then there was only the mom and two baby bunnies left. Our dogs ate the bunnies. They're both baby bunny eaters."
