I saw a note on Facebook the other day that said 4 year olds ask 437 questions a day. I’d believe it! Usually the questions will start to drive me nuts but Nathan asked me the best question ever yesterday!
Nathan: Mommy, why do bunnies lie?
Me: (confused) Bunnies don’t lie?
Nathan: Yes they do!
Me: Was there a bunny at Vacation Bible School that lied? (Each day they have a new cartoon character that they meet so I wondered if this is where the question was coming from.)
Nathan: No.
Me: Well, honey bunnies don’t lie.
Nathan: Yes, they do mommy. You know! (Nathan begins singing)
My bunny lies over the ocean, my bunny lies of the sea
Me: (laughing) Oh!!! Honey, the song isn’t about a bunny it’s
My bonnie lies over the ocean, my bonnie lies over the sea
Earlier in the day I had sung this song the Levi and it must have stuck with Nathan! I thought this was so funny!
