One thing I love about kids is their sense of time and the phrases they use to describe time.
Joshua, "Wow that took me ten whole years" (actual time was 2 months)
Samuel, "When I was bigger..."
Maria, very dramatically, "I'm dying, I haven't had water in 3 days!"
Joshua, "When I was a hundred I was bigger than daddy"
Maria, "a thousand years ago..."
Joshua, "a hundred weeks ago..."
Samuel, "When we went to that park tomorrow..." (meaning yesterday)
Maria, "remember when we went to that park a few miles ago..." (meaning a few days)
Mom, "your turn is in two minutes"
Samuel whining, "I can't wait, that's so long...."
Mom, "it's in 3 days"
Maria, "How much is 3 days? Is it 1,2,3?"
Maria," I'm starving, I haven't had any food in weeks!"
