Flowers and Felonies

Today Chad and Hannah did a project of planting flowers. They are just seeds and Hannah was very upset that they were not growing right then and there. I blame children's television shows. There was one show that Hannah watches called, Go, Baby! On this show they plant a seed and "patiently" wait while the flower grows in seconds. This has given Hannah an unrealistic understanding of the growing process. Maybe I should blame myself for letting her learn about the growing process from television......nah! I'll blame t.v.! We will keep you posted on the actual growing process.

And now for the felonies----Today Hannah and I were out in the garage. She found a wrapper in her pocket and gave it to me. During the hand-off it fell on the ground. We were late for work so I just told her that we would get it later. She said, "But mom! I don't want to get a-rough-ted! I will get a-rough-ted today!" I asked her what a-rough-ted meant and why she was going to get a-rough-ed (figured it out yet?!?!) She then told me that if you throw trash on the ground you will get a-rough-ted. I finally got it. She thought that she would get "arrested." I have no idea where she got that! She comes up with the craziest things! Is littering a felony? I'm not sure, but it sounded good with flowers.
