The other day we were on our way to church and Olivia asked "Mom that's called a gas station, right?" I told her "yes, that is a gas station." She went on to say..."doesn't that just make you feel like we are out in the country?" I responded that gas stations don't really make me feel like i am out in the country. "Take a deep breath...can you smell that? Aahhh just like we are out in the country" she said. I asked her to explain to me how gas stations make her feel like she is out in the country. She explained that whenever we go out into the country there are gas stations everywhere. I asked when we have been out in the country, she responded, "you know like Utah and California." It seems to me my sweet Olivia considers any place outside NYC "out in the country." She is right, compared to NYC (where we never really see gas stations) there really are gas stations everywhere when we are outside the city.
