{Parent Trap playing on tv ... "first thing is off to a boarding school in Switzerland..."}
Mr. M: (to Miss A) "You know what a boarding school is? It's where they send kids to be bored. And all they do is keep their room perfectly clean. If one speck is out of place they have to clean it up. And they learn Switzerland there."
Last night talking with Miss A before bed.
Me: So what do you like to do at school?
Miss A: Chase the boys at recess or have them chase us.
Me: What happens when they catch you?
Miss A: They just let us go and then we start all over again.
Me: And that's exactly how the rest of your life will go ... chasing the boys, getting caught, letting go and starting all over again.
Miss A: (giggle)

Such a wise momma. So insightful!
Tee-hee! Love the bored-ing school explanation. Very astute.
And may I just say that I LOVE your pioneer post? Pure fabulousness.
Cute, cute. I love how you mix it up- a little "don't try to screw with me life, credit theives" and then "sweet mama" moments.
