Things said ...

The kids seem to be full of quips. Which I guess is better than somethings they could be full of....

G-man, with history book in hand says, "Oooo I get to learn about Robert E. Lee!"
J-man, says with a slight frown and a great big grin, "Robert eats leaves?"

~~~

"Pick up the blocks" Says I - after Bubbles kicks them, sending them scattering.
She points to her mouth, "But my mouth is hot."

I don't know why that matters, either.

~~~

Bubbles touch her elbow and pouting.
Not just any pout - this was a dragging-the-lip-on-the-floor kind of pout.
"My elbow hurts. I need a bath."

Huh. this was almost as good as the time she put her hand to her forehead, with enough oscar worthy drama, and told me "My eye hurts. I need Diet coke."

~~~

"Mom," says mini-me, "Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure." Says the gullible mome.
"Why is Bubbles so annoying?"
-- the obvious answer is 'because she's three' - but my response was "Why are YOU so annoying?"
She grinned and said, "I asked you first."

she had me there.

Your kids certainly don't lack for creativity and imagination, do they? Must be the creative and imaginative Mommy they have :)

I think I'm sick. I need eggnog.
