chicken eggs

Today as I was talking to my sister on the phone she mentioned how the school had sent home a note saying there was head lice in her daughters class. EWWW. We talked about it for quite awhile and she was remembering when her older daughter had gotten it years back and how awful it was. Both of our heads are now itching from just discussing it.

A few hours later Ethan said, "MOM, when are the chickens going to lay their eggs in my hair"? At first I had NO idea what he was talking about. Then I remembered back to when I was talking to my sister. I had said something about 'them' laying eggs in your hair. I never did say lice.

He must have been listening and really thinking and wondering and pondering and being confused about when the chickens were going to lay eggs in his hair. That is the most common animal that lays eggs. LOL.

And then a couple of days ago I was out front with the kids watching them ride their skateboards. It was just Ethan and Mayah and they were sitting on them and scooting their way across and racing. Mayah looked at Ethan and said, "ladies first". That really got me laughing and come to find out she heard it from her sister. OFCOURSE. Isn't that where our kids learn everything? From an older sibling? But it was cute. Ethan didn't think so. He actually got really mad and started screaming at her telling her that ladies do not go first. I think Don needs to talk to this boy and teach him some manners. :)
