Averyism

Today Avery and I had a discussion about grandparents and how you become one.

The following is our dialog:

Avery: ‘So, have you ever met anyone without a grandma?”

Me: “No, honey everyone has a grandma. Because everyone has to have a mother, therefore, everyone has a grandma.”

Avery: “Hmm, How would I be a grandma?”

Me: ” Your kids would have to have babies.”

Avery: ” Well, I am not sure I am going to have babies.”

Me: ” You don’t want to have kids?”

Avery: “Oh, I want to have kids, just not babies. Babies are a lot of work and toddlers are not as much work. So, I am just going to adopt a toddler and if I am successful with that maybe I will adopt a baby next time.”

Yes, this seriously was our lunch conversation.
