[summer roadshow: the mouths of babes] ^{11:36 AM}

We're in Newmarket, NH until tomorrow, where we're spending time with our friends Pierre and Andrea and their kids: Luc (11) and Adele (9).

Luc, one of my favorite kids in all the world, has apparently become a 14 year old in an 11 year old's body. The angst is rising, and I attribute it to him being a 5th grader on a high school reading level. I can't wait until he gets his hands on The Outsiders.

And now, some choice moments from Luc and Adele:

LUC:
(after being asked to clean his room)
I'm just trying to live my life!!

ADELE:
(upon seeing a polar bear in his final moments on Planet Earth)
Please-tell-me-that-polar-bear-isn't-going-to-die! Is this a true story?!
