Lessons we've learned from our kids #15

Another Economics Lesson:

Nico: "Daddy, I need one of those cards you pay for things at the store so I can buy a car."

Daddy: "You know, those cards are the same as money, it just comes out of our bank account instead of my wallet."

Nico: "That takes our money?!"...OK then I'll just get a car from the internet so we don't have to pay!"

Zoology lessons via our pet water turtles:

"Daddy, did you know you can't pull turtles out of thier shell?"
"Since turtles live in water they have to drink glasses of air when they're thirsty."
Said while choking back sobs: "The bigger turtles get the harder they bite!"

At the movies we discovered that 5 and 6 year olds have the uncanny ability to whisper as loud as an adult can yell.
