Our house is the playdate house. Moms love sending their kids here (some at the last minute because I'm one of the few with a spare carseat) because I have a pantry stocked with kid-friendly mostly organic snacks and they figure as a former teacher, their children are probably learning something of importance. Children delight in the big playroom that can take a beating as well as the dog that will sit quietly while they drape her in various costumes.After each date, I'm thanked profusely but really I enjoy it. Especially when the kids talk in the backseat---I get to be privy to the funniest, at times profound, occasionally inane statements:
"You only pick noses in bed"
"You can't grow down, you gotta grow up"
"Sometimes I don't want to walk but I still kick my elephant"
"Bears don't like to ride buses"
"My mommy knew me when I was a baby"
"All doctors have fish in a bubble"
If only I could install a camera....

Very wise words. And all very true.
Conversations of utter joy. Great photo as well. Cath - call me, this has given me an idea (could this be trouble? Nah!).
Super wise words and super stinkin cute too. I esp like the grow down one.

i think you should definitely install a camera!!
What's so inane about "Bears don't like to rides buses?" Have you ever tried getting a grizzly on a Greyhound? They don't like it. Trust me.
oh man. i wish you lived closer.
