Kids Say the Cutest Things

Last night at the hockey game, there were these two little boys sitting in the row behind us. They were about 4, just the right size to kick the back of my chair....
Anyway, they, as most small children, had the cutest things to say, most of which only made sense in a limited way. There was the "Did you know that Santa has a son?" "Really? Who?" "Elves."
And, "I know how to spell the letter 't'." "How?" "T-Y-I"
Then, as the team we were playing was the Grand Rapids Griffins, "What is a griffin?" "You know that bird from Harry Potter? The one that bursts into flame and comes back again. That's a griffin."(This is the father.) "Is that where they got the name Gryffindor?" "Yes."

I was afraid of getting cotton candy in my hair, but it seems I was in more danger of getting hit by flying beer, as the vendor tripped coming up the stairs. Oops...

It was a nice night. And the home team even won. :)
