It's cliche, but it's true. You simply never know what your kids are going to say.

While canoeing on Friday, we were discussing which dance costume the girls were going to wear in the parade the next day. L. couldn't decide and started to drift from the original topic at hand to a costume idea she had for her dad.

It involved wearing a brown hat, brown pants, brown shoes and having a wooden cut out.

Do you have a guess where she's going with that?

It's an L. idea all the way, which is why I'll leave it to her to explain.

And after seeing this grin once she shared her dad's costume idea in the video, I realized she helped me to live up to the LOL costume suggestion this morning.

But when it came time for her sister to suggest a costume idea for HER, it was a whole new story. She decided it was time to stop the brainstorming session.
