I was "racing" Little Boy down the stairs and into the kitchen today.
He won (because I let him) and then he responds with:
"I won! I won Nanny! The old guy didn't win. The old one didn't win."
Apparently I'm old. I find this to be fabulously hilarious. There's only one other time a child has made me feel old, which was when my niece looked at me and said "Auntie! You were alive when they had VHSes." Yes K, and you were too. You watched them when you were 2. I know this because I had to watch The Wiggles VHS with you more than a few times.
Kids are funny that way. Their perspectives are so much different than ours and then they get to give us their commentary on that perspective. I very much enjoy life through a child's eyes. I don't know how to describe it, but it tends to be more enjoyable, more pleasant than life through mine.
