So...this conversation didn't happen while I was there...but I have to share it...it just cracks me up...
My nephew, Lil' Man, was in the backseat of the car with his sister, Lil' Miss...His mom and grandma in the front seat...
His mom asked him to give Lil' Miss her pacifier because it had fallen out of her car seat...
Lil' Man's response:
"Momma why do I always have to do your chores for her?"
ha! like he even has chores...just so funny what comes out of his 4 year old mouth...plus...like he changes diapers or anything...if he only knew the real chores with a baby :)
So, this weekend i had the pleasure of having Lil' Man, my 4 year old nephew, for a bit... i took him to church with me this morning...as we got in the car to leave he started sneezing..
after sneeze #1 I said "bless you"
after sneeze #2 I said "bless you, again"
He then said, "I'm blessed all over"
I smiled and replied, "yes, you are"
How true his words are...We are all "blessed all over" even if current circumstances want to distract you from that fact...
Have a blessed day!
We have a burger place...several actually...called Johnnie's Charcoal Broiler...not sure if you have them or not...but it is ga-oood...the way you know what burger you want is by the number...see, I am so a number 9...Cheeseburger - (Cheese Theta) w/Johnnie’s Sauce, Mayo & Pickles...in fact, their slogan is "Crave your own #"...this is important info...I promise...
well, a few years ago I was working in retail...we had a Johnnie's not too far from the "bullseyed" place I was employed...I was working in an aisle and I heard these two ladies' conversation on the next aisle (this may not be verbatim...but you'll get the gist):
Lady A: I am so glad our shift is over
Lady B: Me too...
Lady A: It was so crowded, I am tired.
Lady B: I cannot wait to get home to shower and change clothes...
Lady A: I know...I smell like a number 2
my inner third grader laughed...a little bit later they walked passed the aisle I was on and they both had on Johnnie's shirts...
In case you're wondering...a Johnnie's #2 is Old Fashioned - With Mustard, Pickles & Onions...
and in this case...I would have to agree...she did smell like "this" #2
I am visiting with Lil' Man, who is in pre-k...we are about to take him to school and here is the conversation that took place....
Me: So, Lil' Man, do you like playing outside at school.
LM: yep
Me: Do you chase girls?
LM: no (while looking at me and shaking his head)
Me: Do the girls chase you?
LM: no (now looking a little aggravated)
Me: Do you not play tag or anything while on recess? (trying to act like I wasn't talking about "boy/girl" chasing...just playing at recess)
LM: yep
Me: Well, don't you chase girls then?
LM: No, we don't chase...we just run together...
His explanation just made me laugh...of course when my aunts went to pick him up from school he was holding a little girl's hand the whole time they were playing outside...when they asked him about it he said that he wasn't playing with any girl...oh, how early these games start :)
As some of you may know I work with a group of kiddos from church...we do ministry outreach and such...here's a conversation I had with a 7th grade girl, whom will be identified as 7...
Me: How is this semester of jr. high going for you so far?
7: Oh, it's going ok...I kinda like my new classes...
Me: Are you required to take a computer/typing class? I remember I had to take one...but just sometime in jr. high...
7: Yeah...we do...
Me: I took it in 7th grade, and I am glad I did...it really helped me with all of the papers and such...it would have been more difficult to hunt and peck for keys...
7: Yeah..I'm not good at typing....I'm a big pecker...
It took all I had not to just crack up...she had no idea what she had said...and I didn't want to laugh and have to explain why I thought it was funny...
#1 Between me and a balloon artist (BA)..but not as in BA in the A-Team
BA: Do you want a balloon animal?
F: I would like a feather, can you make a feather?
BA: I can make Jonah and the whale
F: That's nice, but what does that have to do with a feather?
No response from BA...
#2 Lil Man (LM) is in the back seat singing.
LM: Jingle bells, jingle bells, laughing all the way. The reindeer laughed at him all the way. You better watch out Santa Claus is coming to town
F to Sara: Wow, we have a Lil Man medley going on.
LM: IM NOT UGLY!
F: I didn't say you were ugly I said you were singing a medley (then proceeded to explain what a medley is)
#3 Sara, LM and I start singing all together. After about three songs LM says this:
OK stop all of this singing. It's trippin me out.
Where does he come up with this stuff?
Also, if you can explain the connection with Jonah and the whale and a feather please lemme know....
