Lately the littles seem to be growing and with that comes more curiosity. We have been having the wildest conversations. The other day the little woman popped up with could you still work when you are pregnant and how that works. That moved to paycheck jobs versus jobs you get paid for right away like babysitting.
This week the little man wanted to know why I didn't help people. He meant giving money to sign flyers on the side of the street. Well I very rarely ever give anything to a sign flyer. I figure the majority of them are using the money for drugs and I don't want to help with that. If I feel inclined to help homeless I give money to Share House. This is hard to explain to a six year-old.
We have been talking about pets and what they can have now and when and what they have to wait until they are grown ups to have. Her new thing is a ferret. That is better than a snake. She also wants five turtles when she grows up.
We talk about who is behaving and who isn't. We talk about Indiana. We talk about how rude people are who let their dogs chase cats. We had that experience in our lives and while I sure hope it wasn't something done on purpose....they have big feelings about it still to this day.
It's kind of interesting watching their minds develop and have them ask pertinent questions to life.
