Best exchange of the week

This made Marc and I laugh out loud.

Syd: Daddy, what are those hooks for, on the ceiling?
Marc: For hanging plants. Like baskets of flowers and things.
Syd: Oh. (Long pause) I thought Captain Hook lived here.

Gotta love the 5 year old mind.

That may be the best exchange of the month (possibly year). I instantly wondered if the little'un meant 'Captain Hook lived here" as in those are his spare hooks or "Captain Hook lived here" and his hooks were stuck in the ceiling and his hands were in the floor above.

:D

no, s.!, captain hook doesn't live here, you do! : )

too bad the magic doesn't last forever. i'd be sprinkling fairy dust around the bushes and making my kids doubt reality. then they'd be those weird outcasts at school. : )
