Tiny Talk Tuesday - the South Pole

Tiny Talk Tuesday helps parents focus on one of the many joys of parenting - the funny things that our little ones (and sometimes big ones) have to say.

My Tiny Talk Tuesday was really 2 conversations ... within 12 hours of each other.

Monday night after story time, my 4 year old Sam and I had a bit of a conversation about God. As often happens afterwards, Sam told me ..

S: Mummy, I love you.
Me: I love you too Sam.
S: I love you all the way to....
Me: Belgium? Where Auntie Judy lives? I love YOU that far.
S: What's further than that?
Me: Africa?
S: Africa... I love all the way to Africa!

This morning, Sam asked for a cuddle - and got one... I said to him..

Me: Sam, I love you all the way to Africa!
S: What's further than Africa?
Me: Um... the South Pole?
S: Where is the South pole?
Me: At the bottom of the earth where it is cold and the penguins live.
S: Can we go there? When we go there we will have to dress up REALLY warm... I would wear 2 t-shirts and my jumper and my coat!
