Kids say the strangest things - Part Two

While standing in some of the various lines at DW yesterday, my son showed me his outgoing side. We would walk up to total strangers and say things like “What is your name?” or “Where are you from?”

On a few occasions he would begin conversations using his newly acquired Mickey Mouse sunglasses, complete with flip-out dark lenses. “Hey, did you see my new sunglasses? Look, they flip out like this and then they are just normal glasses and then you can flip them back and they are sunglasses. Isn’t that cool?” How can you be annoyed with a rambling like that from an ‘almost 5’ year old? People would warm right up to him and just chat away. He learned about someone in front of us who had just had surgery, someone else who was here with there long-lost and recently found relatives, and many others.

Kids might say the strangest things sometimes, but you never know what you might learn from them.
