Conversation with Caleb...

Today while driving home from Shasta's house, we passed the Twin Falls County Fairgrounds.  The fence had hundreds of purple ribbons tied to it.  Caleb pointed to the ribbons and said, "Mom!  I know what those ribbons mean!" 
"You do?"
"Yeah.  They're for people with cancer."
Remembering that relay for life is next week I said,
"Yeah I think you're right."
"It's like jump-rope for heart, mom.  Except for people with cancer."
Yep.  We then drive passed an exceptionally old lady driving in a power-chair down the sidewalk.
"You see that lady mom?  SHE has cancer."
"Really?  Are you sure....I don't think so."
"Yes.  She does.  And see that little boy?"  (He points to a little boy riding a bike).  "He has.....well he doesn't have cancer.  But he DOES have a really nice bike."
