This past Sunday Ellie and I were driving up to Harrisburg, PA for a baby shower. It was a little over an hour trip so that left us with plenty of time to chat and that brings me to the topic for this post... Larry.
We started talking about birthdays and who's are next. When we finally got to October we talked about all of the people who share the same birthday month... Ellie, Andrew, Brendan, Schatzie, Takara, Larry, and myself. Also that Ellie and Andrew will always be the same age. They will be 5 at the same time, 7 at the same time, 40 at the same time, and even 90 at the same time. I know, it is just crazy how that works!
While we were talking about where in the month every one's birthdays fall is when the conversation took a sharp turn off of it's predictable course...
Ellie: Andrew and I share a birthday on the same day.
MB: Do you know who's birthday is the day after yours?
E: Takara (side note: Takara is one of her classmates.)
MB: And who else?
E: Schatzie
MB: Do you know who's birthday is the day before Mommy's birthday?
E: No
MB: Your Uncle Larry
E: Uncle Larry's got no hair. Why?
MB: Well, when some men get older they loose their hair.
E: Did he used to have hair?
MB: Yes, when he was younger.
E: But you can't see it now.
MB: Nope.
E: I have a book at school with a man that can take his teeth out.
MB: When you have teeth you can take out, they are called false teeth.
E: False teeth. *Pensive moment.* Uncle Larry has false hair.
