An Extra Lesson in Telling Time

Army and I were discussing what to do for dinner since I DON'T cook in this heat. Linus could hear us (barely), but she wasn't really part of the conversation. I suggested one place, and Linus piped up with, "Oooh, yes! I love that restaurant." I suggested another, and she gave her opinion on that one. Eventually we moved on to a new topic. Linus has been hungry all day. ALL day. Anyway, she ran over to me with my little alarm clock in her hands and said, "Look Mommy and Daddy, it's EAT o'clock!" I said, "Hey, don't times have number in them?" She replied, "Mommy, I got the o'clock part, and if you look at the clock, it definitely says EAT o'clock!" Gee, you think she knows how to get her point across?

I seem to be on the same page with Linus on this one, because lately everytime I look at the clock it says EAT o'clock! You have no choice but to feed the child, and preferably at the restaurant she LOVES--hehe! In case I haven't mentioned it lately, I just love Linus! EAT o'clock--I love it, and I'm going to steal it. This is the first time I have ever stolen a saying from a four-year-old! HAHA!
