The Things Kids Say

My sister and brother-in-law are always telling me about the funny things my little nephews (Adam, age 5, and Caleb, age 3) say. Which reminds me, do they still make new episodes of that show "Kids Say The Darndest Things"? Anyway, the following are just a few recent examples of things they have said:

#1:
My Sister: So Caleb, do you want a baby brother or a baby sister?
Caleb: I want a baby friend.

#2:
My sister and her husband took both kids along with them when they went to a place to have their taxes professionally done. When they arrived at the place, Adam asked, "Is this where the government lives?"

#3:
The kids' grandma on their dad's side of the family owns a successful greeting card making business. One line of cards are made using real insect carcuses. The carcuses are frozen and them somehow their images are scanned into the card paper in a way that leaves the imprint of the carcus on the card, making for a very unique greeting. Well, if anyone knows Adam, they know that he is a very sensitve young man who is also very much in-love with nature. Thus, he cannot stand the fact that his grandma makes these cards by freezing poor, innocent insects. So, the other day when his grandma sent the family one of these cards in the mail, Adam saw it and said, in a frustrated tone, "Ugh, grandma's been freezing bugs again!"
