Observations of a toddler

This morning Sam noticed that I had a lot of freckles on my shoulder and asked me "Why are you covered with all that stuff?" I told him that that was just how I had been born. He pondered that for a moment while looking at his feet and replied, "Just like I was born with little toes?" Then he took a look at Sadie (with her impressive bedhead) and said "And like Sadie was born with sticky-up hair?" Then came another moment of reflection followed by my favorite comment: "And like Daddy was just born with a big head?"
