The Facts of Life (according to Nolan)

Earlier this evening, Nolan was watching me take out my earrings and put them away. He wondered if it hurt to put earrings in. I assured him that it didn't hurt one little bit. Nolan then told me I had beautiful earrings and that he really liked them.

"But I don't want to wear earrings. Those are for girls. Girls grow up and turn into Moms. So I won't do that. You know what I'm doing to have when I'm 20? A beard."

I was having a little trouble following this conversation so all I could come up with was, "You want a beard?"

Nolan looked at me like I was incredibly dumb. "Not NOW, Mom! When I'm 20!"

Well, duh.
