Overheard at Target

Here's a conversation I overheard at Target today.

Boy: I like this one (pointing to a Lego set).

Mom: Uh, I'm not sure. It says 7-12 years old on the box.

Boy: But I'm 7!

Mom: Yes, but I don't know if you can put that together. I don't think I can help you.

Boy: (Totally dripping with sarcasm) Well, we know a man named, "Dad..."

Is this a glimpse into the future? It made me appreciate how wonderful Evan's toddlerhood is. The purity, the wonder, the honesty. No sarcasm yet, but with parents like us, I'm sure it's just around the corner!
