Being an Aunt is a Blast

Sunday night we went out to dinner with my whole family.  My 8 year old nephew is one of my favorite people in the whole world, and certainly one of Michael's.  He was explaining to us why he would not eat a "living creature."  His father explained to him that he does eat living creatures and he said he meant a living creature from the sea.  I told him he eats salmon, which is a sea creature, and his father told him he eats living creatures from the land.

My nephew responded with "I eat a hamburger which is a living creature from a cow and I eat a hot dog which is a living creature from a dog."

I looked at my sister and said, "you have to let me blog this." 

8 year olds are fun.

Thank you for all your thoughtful comments on this.  I still don't know what we are going to do, but I will let you know as soon as I do.
