Overheard

While walking back from BigZabba's school I passed a Mom who was walking her kid to school. The child was walking on the grass in front of the school...

Mom says, "Don't walk on the grass."
Child says, "Why?"
Mom says, "Grass is for looking at, not walking on."

Why even have it if you can't walk on it?! Does this Mother let her child play outside? Is the poor kid bound to the pavement? Maybe I am not the "norm", but I think it is great if I see kids playing outside, even if they are playing on my lawn, I don't care. They are kids let them play, let them frolic, let them be free...
