Kibble and Bits

At the dinner table on Sunday night we were talking about dog food.  Delicious, right?  Daddy referred to dog food as kibble; Kibble & Bits.

Toby asked, "What is Kibble & Bits?"

Jessie pipes up, "I know, me and Toby are the Kibble and Logan and Syd are the Bits."

My Man and I busted up laughing, and J was a little embarrassed until we assured her she made a funny joke.  The kids are used to us calling the younger ones Littles and the two older kids are the Bigs.  So naturally, Jess thought it was a term of endearment for our kids.☺  Now we have another term of endearment to call our different aged kids.  They are all still chillies, and we now have the Littles/Bits (5 and under) and the Bigs/Kibble (7 and up).  Gotta make this crazy zoo fun and interesting, right?  When we are running errands or deciding who takes kids to what event or family members house to stay, it's much easier to split up the Littles with an older kid.  My Man and I communicate faster calling them by their nicknames.

Isn't it fun to get a glimpse into the mind of a child?  I still laugh about Kibbles & Bits.......
