Fall Walks

Every night the family tries to get out and go for a walk. This helps The Boy run off some of his energy and helps me get back into the habit of exercising. We just bundle The Girl up and walk around the block in our neighborhood. This is the conversation The Boy and I had on yesterday's walk.

As we walk under an oak tree.
The Boy: What are those?
Momma: They look like acorns.
The Boy: No they don't, they aren't big enough.
Momma: Well, they are the tops of the acorns.
The Boy: What happened to the rest of the acorn?
Momma: I think squirrels got the bottoms.
The Boy: Momma, they got the middles too.

I guess they did.
