Today I picked up Samuel from school and as he was getting in the van I noticed he had grass and dirt in his hair. Here is the conversation that followed -
Mama: "You must of had fun playing outside today - you are dirty"
Samuel: "I was playing on the playground and did a head dive."
Mama: "A head dive?" {Said in a way to mean "Wow, sounds like you had fun!"}
Samuel: obviously he thought I wasn't understanding what a head dive was "Mama, it means I was running and my head plunged into the ground and I got dirt all over my head and big red spot on my forehead."
Mama: "Oh, I see."
Samuel: "I can tell you what a nose dive is if you need me to, Mama..."
This kid has no lack of expression. He comes up with descriptive ways to tell the story of his life - I love it!!! Now it's nap time and I am going to plunge into a book...I mean head dive!
