real life

Our conversation sitting at the breakfast table this morning:

Miles (pointing to a picture of a farmer and a cow on the milk carton): This is not real life.

Me: Yes, that's right. This is just a picture.

Miles (smiling): Real life on t.v.

Me (laughing, but in disbelief - the kid doesn't really watch that much t.v.): No, real life is you and me sitting here right now at this table having breakfast. You and I are real, what happens on t.v. is not real.

Miles considers this for a moment, laughs and continues to eat his cereal.

Real life for us this week:

About Me

Stubborn, opinionated, academic girl meets athletic, charming, Puerto Rican boy while studying abroad in Santiago de Chile. Falling in love in a foreign country ensues. Travel, study, marry, settle, make a baby. Enter Miles Gabriel. Life with a toddler keeps us busy. We decide to add more chaos to the mix. Another baby is born. Enter Lydia Wynne. Lucky acorns. I have two and I keep them close to my heart. How about you?
