Jared is funny!

I know a lot of what I share about Jared probably doesn't seem all that funny to the random reader, but those of you who KNOW Jared and his expressions, and the general manner of how he speaks (well beyond his years in most cases!), this will come off as extra comical!

Monday was Jared's first day back to school after being out of school for snow days, and Winter break, and the kids in his preschool class were REALLY chatty about everything they'd been up to, and the presents they received, etc. Jared's teacher told me that Jared was just BEYOND excited as he was talking about the metal detector that Santa brought for him, and was animatedly explaining how to turn it on, and describing the sound it makes when you find a metal object, etc. She then asked him if he'd found anything interesting with his metal detector, and he very enthusiastically replied, "Yeah! The fridge, and the stove, and the fish tank!!!" LOL!

In his defense, our weather was less than ideal for heading outdoors to "treasure hunt", so he mostly just stuck to the indoors and was figuring out which things in our house are made of metal and which things aren't. So it wasn't so much that he meant he found our fridge and the stove and the fishtank, but that he discovered that they're made with some metal parts...

How cute! Did he want a metal detector? Or did Santa know something Jared didn't know? What a funny gift for a little kid! But it totally fits his personality!
