The Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing But the Truth

Last night, as I was tucking my 4-year-old son into bed, we had the following exchange:

LITTLE MAN: Daddy, when you're 35 that makes you a grown up.

ME: That's right.

LITTLE MAN: And when you are 36, you are a giant.

ME: Really? I'm 37. What does that make me?

LITTLE MAN: Fat.

out of the mouths of babes, you gotta love it. You need to keep a recorder near by to tape these conversations. They will be treasures in later years and hysterical to play back to your son when he is 35, 36, 37.

One question too many on cross-examination. Typical defense attorney mistake.

Just ask a child they say what is on their mind. Honesty at it's best.
