Before I forget...

While I was overhearing my three boys playing with their dinosaurs which were attacking one another...


Punky: Look Finny. The meat eaters are attacking them.


Me (always the homeschooler): Boys, do you remember what meat eaters are called?


Punky: Carnivores.


Me: Right. Do you remember what the plant eaters are called?


(pause.)


Punky: Meatloaf?


Me (stifling a chuckle): Well, yes Punk, I suppose to the carnivores, they would be considered meatloaf. I was thinking of herbivore, myself. Thanks, Bud.


Kids say the darnedest things, huh?
