Kids and Kathmandu

This week I am in Nepal babysitting kids while their parents on in a conference. We have just made it through our second full day with 9 kids. I'm a little tired, but its been good. Kids are just funny. Especially these kids. Throughout the day, interesting things are said. Especially because they are all American kids who live in Asia. These quotes made me laugh:

"Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, called America...." (I said this, it just made me laugh, because to these kids it was true.)

The following quote was one of the older kids trying to bribe the 4-year-old into wearing a hat:
"Zane, if you wear that hat, it will make you look 6!"

I'm sure more stories will follow.
