We were without power from Wednesday afternoon until Saturday morning. The hottest days in a couple years, what a nice coincidence. We bunked up with a very kind and generous cousin of Chuck's, the beloved Uncle Mark. His wife and kids were at a cottage on Lake Michigan, so it worked out well in terms of space and fun.
One morning Chuck and Caroline were playing outside in the kids' play fort/swing set which has an "address" of 752 (their ages at the time Mark built it - 7, 5, and 2).
Caroline asked why those numbers were there. Chuck explained. Caroline was confused and asked if cousin Jessica is really the same age as she is. After Chuck explained that this was built 4 years ago, and now the kids are 11, 9, and 6, and they're all older than her.
She was very upset to hear this so bluntly. "That's not fair! Now they won't respect me!"

ABOUT CAROLINE
She's freshly 7. She's a Gemini. She likes to eat tomatoes and draw cats when she is not sharing her wisdom. Yes, this is real. No, this is not exaggerated. Sometimes I wish it was.
Several have asked, so I will answer. This site is called Kazooisms because her nickname is "The Kazoo."
You can email us at kazooisms @ gmail . com (without the pesky spaces, of course).
