Keeping the dragons out.
Daniel, Elijah and I ran over to the high school (kitty corner from our apartment complex) to drop some stuff off for Cat to take to a football game. The school is surrounded by a big gross ditch, which the kids all call the moat.
Elijah asked why their school had a moat.
I said, “To keep the kids safe from dragons.”
Daniel gave me a look that plainly said, “I am so irritated that you thought of saying that, and I didn’t.”
Elijah said, “Uh, Mom, dragons can fly.”
The gross moat:

It looks like dragons could be living in it.
Daniel said, “I can’t believe you said that. Obviously, Elijah and I are rubbing off on you. And anything that you gain, we lose.”
you are a smart mama. i wouldn’t have come up with that that fast. gross moat. i wouldn’t want to fall in it by accident.
e freaking gads.
