My First Favorite Nephew

Meet Tell, my adorable oldest nephew.
Now laugh with me at the funniest thing he has ever said.

Tell is (like all good children) deep into a questions phase. He drives my sister crazy with some of his bizarre questions. Yesterday it was, "Mom, what's a dictatorship?" After she got over her confusion as to why a 7 yr old would ask such a question, she attempted to answer him. "Well, Tell it's when there's a leader that tells everyone what to do. He's mean and bossy and won't let people do what they want to do."

Tell thinks and says, "How come the people don't just jump off?"

"Jump off what, Tell?"

"The ship!"

"What ship?"

"The dictator ship!"

That might be my favoritest Tell story of all time.
