Funny Things

Children get amused by the smallest things. The other day, I gave Drew a pear--whole. I cut off the skin and the stem just how he likes it. Maggie and Audrey were sitting at the table with Drew coloring while he ate his pear. When I came to clean Drew up, I noticed there was no pear core. I looked everywhere for it, soon to realize he ate the whole thing, core, seeds and all! I said, "Drewey, you ate the core and the seeds! Now you're going to grow a pear in your belly!" Maggie and Audrey actually believed me, and thought that was the funniest thing they had ever heard. They were rolling with laughter on the floor!
