Body Parts and Clip Art

Conversations we have in the car:

Daughter says, "Mom, I did some clip art today for a brochure in computer class."
I'm in awe and say, "You know about clip art?"

Then, as if I'm kind of behind the times, she says very coolly, "Yeah - it's pretty neat." She then told me about her search word and the pictures it returned. I can't remember what her search word was; probably because of what immediately followed.

Son (jumping in to the conversation with a lot of excitement) says, "We did clip art too. And I typed in 'boob' and got a picture of a pizza."

To which I immediately snap to attention and think to myself, "What did he just say?". And then out loud I quickly ask, with kind of that serious momma tone in my voice, "Legare - what in the world were you doing typing in the word 'boob'? Especially in school? And why would that word return a picture of a pizza?"

To which I get the very incredulous response of, "Mmoomm - I said 'FOOD' not 'Boob'.

I'm thinking "whew" at this point and begin wondering why I thought he said "boob"in the first place. I dismiss it with the thought that his speech must have just been muddled. And then he hits me with this....


"But you know..........Boobs are waaaaay better than pizza!"

And this - from the mouth of the 8 year old! Must be like father, like son.
