More career choices

Mom: "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

Cael: "Let me think... ... ... I know, a farmer!"

Mom: "What are you going to grow on your farm?"

Cael: "You mean like animals?"

Mom: "Sure, animals or vegetables. What do you think?"

Cael: "Baby tigers. ... Baby piggies."

Mom: "Oh, careful! The baby tigers may want to eat the baby piggies."

Cael: "Not on my farm."

Mom: "Okay, what else?"

Cael: "Mice in a cage. Baby kitties. And baby puppies."

Mom: "That's wonderful! Where is your farm going to be? Iowa? Nebraska? Missouri?"

Cael: "Hmm... ... ... I know! NORTH AMERICA!"

Speechless

"You knocked the words right out of my mouth!"

Fickle birds

Mom: "You'll have to help us watch for hummingbirds again this morning."

Cael: "They're not coming back for a long time."

Mom: "Why not?"

Cael: "'Cause they're off sucking on somebody else's flowers."
