I love the honesty of kids!!

So this afternoon I decided We needed to get out of the heat and go and play for a while at the Best Start Hub here in Blind River. 

Once we got there, literally as soon as I put the boys down on the floor to play, a group of kids from one of the day cares came in to play as well. 

So they boys they just sat there and watched all the activity of these kids about 5-7 year old, maybe some older.  These kids seemed to be really active and were all over.  Eventually the boys got comfortable and started to play and talk and scream the way they would at home.

When a couple of the girls that were there with the group came by and started to play with Nicholas and Lucas.  One of the girls was talking and she mentioned something about the shape of the boys heads.  She said that Nicholas' was round and then she said "I don't know what shape his head is" referring to Lucas.  I didn't really know what to say so I didn't really say anything other then just kinda agree with her.

So I guess this kinda goes along with the "do you notice his head?" post that I put on earlier.  And the answer today would be YES!! 

I guess this could be put down to the fact that kids don't have the "filter" yet for what should be said and what shouldn't, but as far as I'm concerned we should, sometimes, take a page out the book of children and if we want to know something, just ask!!  I'm not saying that we need or should say something that could possibly hurt someone but if you were talking about something like this then maybe these kind of things need to be said!! 

Just think about it, if you were talking to me and noticed his head and how different the 2 of them are and because your "filter" tells you not to comment, we as adults don't.  But a child in the same situation will make that comment and to be very honest it was a welcome comment, just because I know that now even kids do notice and I think that if we were to leave it he would be teased.  Even though I think he may be chased by the girls, he just got a pair of those kind of eyes!!

So we are a little more then 2 weeks away from our trip to Toronto and Sick Kids with all the appointments, and I'm not that apprehensive about it, yet anyway.  So we will see when the time comes!!
