Tanker v. Tinker

A week ago, after the base picnic, Eric dropped me off to do some grocery shopping and he kept the kids taking them on a driving tour of the base.  The tour included the edge of the "bone yard".  He was happily playing tour guide pointing out various planes.  Laurelei and Kjetil slept through the tour.

Eric, "CJ that is an F-16"
CJ in her best bored teenager voice, "I don't care. And I don't see an F."

Not to be discouraged, Eric continued with the tour.  He loves looking at the planes and they still had time to spare.  Several minutes and planes later they came across a KC-135.

Eric,"CJ that is the tanker plane that daddy used to fly on."
As excited as a 4 yr old can be, busting at her own seams, she exclaims, "DADDY, YOU FLEW WITH TINKER BELL?!?!?!!?"



****On another note, I have figured out where her, "Don't get me wrong Sunshine" phrase came from.  Any guesses? The winner(s) I will assume have a little girl between the ages of 2-8.  Isn't that prize enough ;)
