A Smart "Smart Alec"

We were watching the Olympics during dinner tonight, and it was the United States men's volleyball tournament against Brazil for the gold medal...so good! Anyway, in the middle of the game I had mentioned to Jordan that it would be interesting to see how fast the ball travels when they spike it over the net...and Jordan told me that when they serve it sometimes they would have the speed, and the last guy had served it at 118 mph! Holy Cow! So I said, "Wow! Can you imagine hitting that with your forearms?!" And without missing a beat, Hailey leaned over to me (she was sitting next to me) and whispered, "Mom, Dada has 2 arms." Think about it... ... ... yeah, hilarious! Jordan got it right away and started laughing, but it took me a couple minutes to understand where she got the correlation fore-arms to 2-arms. I probably should have explained the difference between 4-arms and fore-arms to her, but I was laughing too hard and was enjoying the moment. Gotta love being a Mom!
