Cute kid quote of the week: Newspaper edition

When I was tucking him in last night, Cameron asked me, "How come in some families the mommies don't work?" That part sort of sucked for me, with the explaining that I get money for going to work, that I like my job, but that, of course, I like spending time with him and his brother better.

After a little discussion about how 7 out of 10 mommies does paid work outside of the house, and how yes, I know he likes "home work" better (the kind where mom works on a computer at the house), he had this little gem to say:

"Well, there's one thing I understand about grown-up work in the news business at the Toronto Star and the Globe and Mail. They don't want stories that they others have."

That's my boy.
