I'm getting the kids ready for bed and Breckyn asks me, "Mom, can you hear the washing machine going?"
I pause and listen, "Yep, that's the washing machine."
Breckyn looks puzzled and says, "Huh, that's weird."
I'm a little confused. "What's weird?"
She proceeds to tell me that they are learning about the human body in class. Today they learned that the optimum age for hearing is 8-18. She wanted to know if I could still hear everything that she could hear. She figured I'm so old that I'd be going deaf by now.
I look at her with my mouth gaping open. "How old do you think I am Breckyn?"
"Well, I just wondered...." she says.
She makes me feel so pretty sometimes.

Maybe she is just thinking about the last time I was out there and I couldn't hear most things. But you are far from old.
Don't you just love childrens honesty? Me neither.
LOL!
My youngest sister once asked my father if he lived with dinosaurs when he was younger....
