Funnies from Luke

Luke constantly amuses me with the things he thinks of. Earlier this week as he and I were walking Ginger we were talking about the Pledge of Allegiance. Actually, I was trying to get him to recite it for me since I know they say it every day in his class. He wasn't very accommodating, but as I was kind of saying some lines of it to encourage him, he tells me, "I am under God, you are indivisible, Dad is liberty, and Ginger is justice for all." How cute!

Tonight as I was tucking him into bed, we had a fun conversation about dreams. We had just read a story and at the end the teddy bear in the story is asleep in his bed. Well, the bed is on a cloud and there are stars around it. Luke says, "How can that be? That's not right." I said, "Well, the bear is dreaming." Then I try to explain..."you know, when you see pictures in your head while you're sleeping." He gives me this puzzled look and says, "No, mom, you can't take the hair off your head. That would not be good and that would make a mess." I guess he thought you'd have to take your hair off to see the pictures inside your head! Apparently, the topic of dreams is a little too abstract for now.

I spoke too soon... I'm glad that he remembered Ginger this time!
