The other day my 7 year old said, "Mom, can use the tweezers?"
"Why?" I asked, a little afraid of what his answer might be.
"Because I want to go in the woods in the back yard and there is a prickle bush in the way" was his logical reply.
I looked down from the vegetables I was chopping for dinner and saw that he was actually holding the hedge clippers. That makes more sense. "Go ahead. Just make sure and you put them back in the garage where you found them when you are done. And honey, those are hedge clippers, not tweezers."
"Oh" he said and took off.
Now it makes a lot more sense why when my 5 year old started screaming last week when got splinter and I asked for the tweezers to get it out!

Hey Cookie, thanks for your visit to my blog. This is a cute story. I enjoyed reading your posts.
lol! I love how we follow a language path with kids and they always end up being quite sensible.
LOL!!! So funny. My girls do this daily.
mine got a splinter last week and wouldn't let me touch her with my HANDS.
Yes, now it does make sense! That is too funny.
I was deathly afraid of getting splinters growing up because my mom would use a needle to take it them out.
