Papa said after talking for a long time this morning at breakfast, "If there's anything you can take away from that, then great."
My five year old brother Michael perks up, "Papa, I KNEW you were going to say that!"
Papa, "How? Did God tell you?"
Mick (eyes get big) "YEAH!"
Papa, "Really? What am I going to say now?"
Mick (deepening his voice), "You may all be excused."
LOL! Cute little fellow!
Oh, another one.
Liberty (seven): SISSYYYYYY!!! Timothy's (he's ten) turning the breaker off in the living room!!!
Me: Um. Okay. Why?
Liberty: Well, he doesn't want the light on, and I do, and so he was going to shut the breaker off because he doesn't want the light and I do and....
Me: One light, no more, and no touching breakers. I'll be right there.
I was wondering why I relate to Cheaper By the Dozen :) And when did my ten year old brother learn to shut the living room breaker off in a 15,000 square foot school?!
If that wasn't funny enough...
I walked into the gym the other day and saw this madman on a bike flying straight at me. Of course, everything natural says of course he'll turn and move around me. I only discovered after the head on collision that my little siblings were practicing riding with their eyes closed. I mean, really?!?!?!
Ha! Now I'm on a roll. Listen to this...
Michael (while stuffing chips and fresh salsa into his four year old mouth he got this perplexed look on his face): Sissy, I don't want to ever have a baby boy in my tummy.
Me: Uh, Mick, don't worry, you're never going to have any baby in your tummy.
Mick: Well, then can I have a doggy in my tummy?
Y'all work hard, chill....whatever you do... and have a fantastic day.

Oh what a wonderful little piece of "home"
