I asked my mother when I was young why people got cremated. She said, “Sweetie, there just isn’t enough room on the earth to bury everyone.” We lived in the Bay Area, CA. That one statement panicked me for life (now 37). I thought we were having a major space issue. While this is a concern, I don’t think it is as dire as her statement made is seem.

Scene: Eating Lunch at Kitchen Table, Baby Brother just spilled milk on the floor.
Who: Mommy and Theo, a four year old boy
Conversation:
Mommy: “Uh, oh spilled milk.”
Theo: “Did it go everywhere?”
Mommy: “Yep”
Theo: “Did it go on the floor?”
Mommy: “Yep”
Theo: “Did it go all over the stairs?”
Mommy: “No…silly”
Theo: “Well then it didn’t go everywhere, everywhere would be all over the place. We would have to get out of the house.”
Mommy: “You are right..it isn’t everywhere.”
Theo: “Bad girl mommy, you shouldn’t say everywhere if you didn’t mean everywhere”

My favorite posts on Facebook have been conversations between children and their parents. So, I decided to start this website so people can share the wild conversations they may have had with their children. If you would like to post a conversation or story, go to the Submit Your Own Story link.
