Ahh, kids...

So, kids around age, say 5 or maybe 6 are really sweetly naive and gullible. The innocence is so endearing. They believe whatever you say. They don't doubt anything. It's great. 

Kid: When's my mom coming back? 

Me: In a little while. 

Kid: How long is that? 

Me: Until tomorrow. 

Kid: But I want her back now. 

Me: Me too. Probably more than you do. 

Kid: What? 

Me: Nothing.

Kid: Where is she? 

Me: Somewhere far away... on the moon, I think.

Kid: The moon? 

Me: Yup. I've been there before, so I gave her the chance. 

Kid: Is she really on the moon? 

Me: Yup. There are places to shop and eat there that you can't go here. 

Kid: Like what? 

Me: Moondonald's and Moonmacy's, I don't know, I haven't been there in awhile. 

Kid: Tell me when she's coming home. 

Me: If you let me watch TV, I'm sure she'll let me know. 

I hope the parents of the little girl I'm babysitting in 2 weeks isn't reading this.
