The Katie Chronicles: Backseat Wisdom Edition

After church and picking up Katie from a Girl Scout camping trip, Katie and I went to get some crickets for Ethan's pet gecko. We also got something called a horned worm because they are apparently gecko treats, not to mention quite handsome, as worms go. Katie was quite taken with the horned worm and on the way home, I heard her telling the worm and the crickets that she was sorry they had to become dinner for the gecko. I said, "Dying is part of life, Katie. Everything dies. Can you imagine the world if nothing ever died?" She paused thoughtfully and then said, "There would be so-o-o much poop!" Later in the trip, she narrated everything the worm did. I heard her say to the worm, "Don't worry, I won't judge you." Wondering what in the world was happening in my backseat, I asked her why she wouldn't judge the worm. She said, "The worm was eating and I saw the mouth. It was weird so I was telling it that it doesn't matter that it has a weird mouth."

So there you have it, America. Katie wants everyone to live long lives but not too long, lest there be too much poop, and she also won't judge you if your mouth is weird.
