Because It's There

Daughter, reading about Mount Everest: Everest. Everest. That's a funny name.
Me: I suppose so.
Daughter: I can see why it's called "Ever." Because it's the highest mountain of them all. Like "forever." But "rest"? That doesn't make sense. Why not call it "Mount "Forever." Like goodbye, forever! Or: Mount "so long, suckers!"

  1. Your kids really do crack me up. Makes me want to spend a afternoon and evening at your house, just hanging out, watching the comedy.

  2. Hey, GEW. You'd be welcome to hang out at our place any time! But not to worry. They have their dark moods like everyone else. Daughter went through an hour-long coaching session at gymnastics yesterday without saying a word. And it was 1:1.
