Lillian's question of the day: What is a vegetarian? Lillian's response: "Uh... some one who eats vegetables. We are vegetarian because we don't eat meat. We don't eat meat because vegetarians don't eat meat. We don't want to eat animals because when someone eats meat they can die." Don't you just love Lillian's circular, yet logical thinking?

Lillian's question of the day: What's the perfect size family?

Lillian's response: "5 people." Lillian's mom asked her why? "Because 5 is the right amount of a family" Lillian's mom: "Why?" "You need 5 people because then it's 2 sisters, 1 brother, 1 Mom and 1 Dad." Lillian's mom: "What about people in families that dont have 5 people?" "Then it can just be 4. or 3. Those are good families too. If I had 3 or 4 people in my family I would love them all. If I had 5 people in my family i can love them all too." Lillian's mom: "What about families with only 1 mom or 1 dad? Not 2 grown ups?" "Those are good families too. Or if there were no sisters or no brothers. Just you and your mommy or daddy. That's good too. They can still love each other. All the people in a family have to love each other. The end. Spell THE END Mommy. Did you spell THE END? Let me see it. Does it say THE END? What did Aunt Marian say back to you? Can i draw now?"

How incredibly insightful Lillian is! She made me cry reading what she said. I wish more people were as open and loving as Lillian is.

Lillian you are correct and we all know that your mom only gives you ice cream at all meals. Looks like you're getting all the basic food groups on the all ice cream diet!

Lillian's question of the day: How and why do flowers grow?

So simple and yet so true! Isn't it amazing that she understands basic science at such a young age?

Lillian's question of the day: Do you like coffee as much as your mom?

Lillian's response: "What? Coffee? No! Kids don't drink coffee!"
Lillian's mom adds this: "LIES! If I get an iced mocha or something like that she TOTALLY takes sips off of it!! She loves it! I think she's picturing hot coffee like what her dad drinks in the morning!

Oh Lillian, I suspect you've developed a taste for the good stuff at an early age. Better get a refillable Starbucks card soon.
