Tutors and Tooters


Tonight I was flying solo with Emily & Liam while Todd was out fishing.  We live near a world renown river and he's a die-hard fisherman, so he was out tonight.  Anyhow, my kids crack me up.  We were baking carrot muffins for my daughter's kindergarten class and we were talking about stuff - their days, sword fighting, classmates in timeouts (not them, of course!) and why it's better to be a good student when my girl says that our nanny was so smart in school that she helped other kids learn.  So I said, yes she was a tutor. Well, both Emily & Liam started laughing their heads off.  I didn't get it for a second until I had realized I said "tooter."  They thought it was hilarious that she was a 'kid tooter.'  The thoughts of children.
