…I ended up with an extra child at my house, not sure how or who he belongs to, but I am pretty sure he is the sibling of another child who is here quite often. 3 kids in the kitchen and me in the living room =

Unknown, unnamed kid: “Did all of this stuff come with your house, or did you have to bring it with you?”

My 9 year old: “We brought it with us, from our old house. Which was infested with bats. Yeah, and then we all had to get rabies shots. It was horrible and hurt really bad. And we have lived here 5 or 6 years.”

Unknown, unnamed kid: “whaaat?”

LOL, I love hearing how kids tend to exaggerate things. Yes, the things about the bat-infested house and rabies shots did happen, but she was two and cannot remember it. She has heard about it so often though, that we have managed to project the entire horrible incidence into her memory 🙂
