During lunch today, Elizabeth looked at me and said "Mama, how do we know if people are real? If they're just standing there, how do we know if they're real?"

Cool. She's only 4 and already asking questions like this. And then I remembered the Haunted Hay Ride we were just on at Wilson Farms. A guy pretended to be a dummy and then jumped out and scared everyone. Elizabeth was speaking literally, "how do we know when people are real?".

oh, well : )

The kids had a blast at the Honk Parade in Davis Square. We took the bus over - easy. But the bus never showed up after the parade, so we walked all the way from Davis in Somerville to Arlington. Paige slept in the stroller but Elizabeth walked, skipped, hopped the whole way home. Her poor little knee blew up like a balloon two days later. Good thing - because this made us take her in and we found the LD.
