Conversations with Lukas

As most of you know, Lukas can provide some interesting insight to things we never thought about. He is also not afraid of sharing his opinions with anyone. Over the past couple of months, I've written down some of the conversations (or parts of conversations) that have proved the most interesting. Enjoy!

Lukas: "Corina, do you know why laser beams aren't scary?"
Corina: "Why?" (or at least a sound that sounded like why)
Lukas: "Because they're just lasers."
Corina: "Wow!"


This was heard after passing a WinStar Casino billboard.
Lukas (to Corina): "If we go there, we can be made of cash. I want to be made of cash, so then Mommy could just get cash from me."


Lukas: "Corina, do you know what a legend is?"
Corina: "What?"
Lukas: "It's a made up story from a long time ago."


Lukas: "Sometimes you need to get on the ground and curl up. When you make your back round, you'll be safe."
Mommy: "What are you protecting yourself from?"
Lukas: "Oh you just do it for fun."


Mommy: "I need more hugs."
Lukas: "Mommy, you shouldn't be greedy."
Mommy: "Mommies are allowed to be greedy with hugs because we can never get enough."
Lukas: "Oh Mommy." (said with a huge resigned type of sigh)


We were having a conversation about the meaning of the word pale.
Lukas: "Grandad's hair is pale. It lost all it's color."


Lukas: "When I make friends, I just go ask people their name. Sometimes I remember, and sometimes I don't."


Lukas: "Giraffes live in the savannah because it's big. The south pole is big enough for giraffes too, but it's too cold." (I have no idea where this comment came from. It was completely out of the blue for me.)
