It's Fun To Have Funds!

It's really funny to see how a child thinks...  These two examples has taken place in my home in just the last week.

Hunter is 12, and very bright.  Recently his mattress has started falling apart and we asked him if he would mind sleeping on an air mattress for a short period of time until we move and then we will buy him a bedroom set.  He loved the idea and asked how soon he can get one.  I explained that we have more funds at the end of the month, so closer to the end of the month is more likely.  He thought about it for a minute and then asked "So you want me to have more fun with the air mattress, thats why you're making me wait?'

I had to explain the difference between funds and fun...  True though, it is more fun to have more funds!!

Stevi is 3.5 going on 15!  Many times when we are shopping in Milpitas, we can smell the dump.  Stevi will ask us what that smell is, and we reply "Milpitas".  This morning she came to me and told me her room is milpitas.  Not knowing what she said or what she was talking about I asked her repeat herself.  She told me "I think Hunter farted in my room, my room is now milpitas"

I realized she thinks "Milpitas" is a type of smell, not a city.
