The Monkey Keeper

It really amazes me how I'm able to have a conversation with Riley and Piper. You never know what is going to come out of their mouths. Like today for example. Riley tells me Aubrey is learning how to fly because she is going to be a bird when she gets bigger. Which may be possible. She is starting to squawk like one. She loves hearing her voice. I then asked Riley what type of animal she was. She tells me that Piper,Daddy and her are monkeys. If you've met either of them, its true. Riley then turns the question around and aks me what I am. I told her the truth. " I'm the Zoo Keeper" After Ben got home, I related the conversation to him but letting Riley tell most of the story. Ben asked her what Mama was and she lit right up and shouted "The Monkey Keeper! Can't argue with that logic. I told Ben it could be worse,he could have been a gorilla. Riley starts to giggle and crawls into his lap and says "Daddy, you're a big girl!" You never know how kids are going to interpret things they hear!
