Close Call

Yesterday, Alex wanted to write and mail a letter to his cousin, Jake. So he "wrote" a letter, and I addressed the envelope. I showed him where to put the stamp and the return label. Then we took it out to the mailbox. While we were outside, we heard thunder in the distance. He said, "Momma, we better get inside." So we walked back to the house. As I opened the front door, he looked up at me so seriously and said, "That was a close call!"

Where does he come up with this stuff?
