A couple weeks ago, during the hurricane actually, one of our neighbors had a bad fall and a fire truck and an ambulance came. Claire had a million questions about what was happening, the lights and the sirens. I was trying to calm her down before bed so I suggested that maybe it wasn't a fire at all, maybe they were going to use their ladder to get a kitty out of the tree. *Silence and Thinking* "'Yeah mom I think that's what they're doing" And off to bed we went.
Fast forward to today. Ross and the girls passed a firetruck on the way home from school and Ross asked Claire what a firetruck does. Claire said, "Gets kitties out of the trees". I'm sure a "Mommy said" followed up when Ross asked her who told her that.
Welp, there we have it. Parenting.
Sleeping Claire. Notice, no fingers in her mouth!
