When I Get Bigger

Famous line of little kids: "When I get bigger..." And it can be followed by a huge laundry list of items. It can change daily, weekly, monthly, yearly. It's so funny when they hit this stage because you can see a comprehension of bigger ideas and -- dare I say it -- some logic starting to form. I can't do that until I get bigger, Mami said so. So I've been very tickled to hear my newly 3-year-old begin his personal use of this phrase. I'm pretty sure his first was "When I get bigger, I go hunting with my daddy and kill a big buck." CRINGE. Not loving that, just gotta say. But what's so funny is his second declaration: "When I get bigger, I spit out mouthwash." HAHAHAHAHA! Who knew that the privilege of using, no apparently spitting, mouthwash was a huge indicator of maturity? And Kitty has made it in his eyes to Bigger-ville because she is allowed to spit mouthwash. Congrats, Princess.
