Errands

Eli helps me run errands, especially now before the baby comes. But I didn't realize how confusing that phrase must be to him until today. After going to the farmers market, I said we had to run an errand. Eli asked if we could walk there. I said, "No, it's too far. We have to drive."

In the car, on the way to return something at Toys R Us, Eli asked if we were running an errand. I said "Yes."

He said, "Not running, Mama."

Me: "What?"

Eli: "Not running, Mama. We are driving errands."

That is awesome. What a great little story! I totally appreciate the literal-minded pre-schoolers.
