Good Caramels

The kids are at an age where they just say some pretty funny things.  They give me quite a chuckle.  I love that they are trying to absorb everything and they are expanding their vocabularies.  Half the time I'm not even sure where they come up with these things.

The other night the girls were playing in one of  their bedrooms while I was folding laundry in mine.  Noodle comes into my room and says, "Hey Mommy, what do you call those candies?  You know the brown ones?"  I paused to think about it and she goes, "Oh yeah! Caramels"  (I know people pronounce that differently so I will say she said it CAR - MULS).  And then we had the following conversation:

Me:  Okay, what about them?

Noodle: I just gave some to LaLa.

Me: We don't have any candy.  What are you talking about?

Noodle: No Mommy, not candy.  You know, like when you do something nice for someone?  Then something good happens to you.  It's called caramels.  I was just sharing really nicely with LaLa.  I gave her good caramels."

I tried my hardest not to laugh as I said, "Well I hope you get lots of good caramels then.  Maybe some good karma too."
