Tonight I had a Relief Society enrichment with a Hawaiian theme. I was telling Phoebe about this and how they were some people there hula dancing and she says to me, "I already know how to hula dance" to which I reply, "how is that?"
Phoebe: I already learned
Mama: where did you learn?
Phoebe: In Mexico? There were two girls doing it there and I followed along
Mama: Ummm, do mean in Hawaii?
Phoebe: Mexico, Hawaii, same difference.
Mama: Not the same at all. In Mexico they speak spanish and Hawaii is way over the ocean.
Phoebe: Oh yeah, hahahahahaha.
And here I thought that having Phoebe be a world traveler would help to educate and enlighten her; give her a sense of what the different places are like and at the very least help her understanding of geographics of the countries we have visited. I guess we will still have to work on all of those. It did give me and the babysitter we were driving home a good laugh though :)

It is apparent to me that this Christmas should be spent at a place like this to refresh her memory. Start putting it together...sort of a celebration of sorts for James' return
that's pretty funny - mexico, hawaii - dame difference, right? :)
same - not dame. oops.
You do take some great vacations...my kids still think Detroit is the greatest place on earth.
Whoever Coach is, I agree with him...
wow, you guys have been to some pretty awesome places! we love to travel too. don't get to as much as we would like, but we love it when we do! its the stuff from which memories are made. cute pics!
So funny! It's like how they think another car is the "same" as yours if it's the same color.
Hopefully you will have some pictures of a family trip to Korea to post someday before tooooooo long! Love, Mom
