Coloring America

This morning, Connor took out his crayons and drew a big circle on his paper. He told me he was coloring the United States of America. He chose a blue crayon and after a few squiggles, told me "This is North Carolina."

Next, he picked a red crayon and asked, "Mommy, what state is red?"

"Uhhh, Texas?" I said.
He busily began making red squiggles to make Texas.

Next, he picked a brown crayon. "Mommy, what state is brown?"

"New Jersey."

I've been to NJ and I have to agree with the kid. In a nice way, I mean. Smart boy.

Lived in northern NJ for 4 years.

That's all I gotta say. Capiche? I'm still laughing.

I like how North Carolina is the center of the "universe" :)
