Things Kids Say....

I actually asked Hannah's permission before posting this, but it was just so sweet and naive of her to say, I had to post it.....here's how it goes.....

The other day, I believe this was Monday or Tuesday, we were driving to school and we were behind a student driver. Hannah rides in the front now since she is the size of an adult...in fact, she is probably larger than my friend I carpool with! That said, she see's the student driver sign on the car and says:

H: "Hey, we're behind a student driver."
Me: a bit distracted, but listening, "Yep, looks like it."
H: "I think they're doing really good; I bet they pass."
Me: "Hmm...I don't know, they're going too slow and it's making me nuts."
H: "I don't know; I think they're going the speed limit."
Me: grumble, grumble.....still distracted with my own issues.....
H: "So mom, after you pass your driver's test, what kind of car do they give you?"
Me: laughter...."Oh, sweetie, they don't give you a car after you pass your driver's test."
H: "They don't? What am I suppose to drive?"
Me: "I'm sorry; some kids parents buy them cars, but I'm guessing you'll drive whatever piece of crap your mom or dad has to offer."
H: "Well THAT stinks."

I was so thankful for the moment of laughter from my daughter and for the reminder of how innocent she still is.
