Toby: Do you have a band-aid finger?
Me: Yes I do.
T: Why?
M: I cut it.
T: By a knife?
M: Yes, with a knife.
T: That's the danger of going too fast.
M: Yes, yes it is.
This exchange was followed by a sneeze from said wise boy who then proceeded to announce "HEY, I BLASTED SNOT OUT OF MY NOSE!"
Parenting - the great adventure.

The blessing it is to have a friend to whom one can speak fearlessly on any subject; with whom one's deepest as well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely. Oh, the comfort — the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person — having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.
- Dinah Craik, in A Life for a Life (1859)
