Nation building and other pearls of wisdom

Mateo, who is fascinated by the big packages of things we get at Costco when his grandparents are visiting, says to me today:

"Mama, is Costco a big country?"

Actually, it kind of is.

Also, our student nanny was here today and was talking to Mateo about the blueberries he was eating. They were frozen blueberries. She asked him whether blueberries grew on a tree or on a bush...

...and he said, "They grow in the freezer!"

Looks like summer can't come soon enough! This is the same kid who saw a picture of the sun in the newspaper weather section and asked "What's that?"

Ah, the burdens of growing up in the pacific northwest.

Blueberry picking, here we come.
