that stinks.

At my house this morning......

Last But Not Least bounds into my bed for morning cuddles (as she often does), and wakes me with a big hug.

LBNL: I love you, Mom. You should buy some Tic Tacs.
Me: Oh?
LBNL: Yes. They are the one calorie breath mint.
Me: Are you saying I have bad breath?
LBNL, smiling sweetly: Very. You should buy the mint kind, not the orange. The orange are just for taste, the mint is for breath, you need the mint kind.
Me: Got it...
LBNL: And you should eat them in the nighttime, so it won't be so smelly when I come to snuggle.
Me: Noted!


And at breakfast.....

Kids: Can we have some friends over for playdates today?
Me: Not today, I want to relax and don't feel like watching a houseful of kids.
LBNL: You don't have to watch us! You can just look at your iPad and we'll get you if somebody bleeds!

Just another day in Paradise!

    They say the cutest things. I love it when their social filters havent developed.

    Little P and I were standing in the checkout line on Friday and he said "That lady is pretty", and I pointed to the checkout chick and said "that one" and he said (loud enough for her to hear ) "NO"....I could have died...

  6. I'm glad you are blogging these conversations because then you will remember them in years to come. I wish I would have written down the things my boys said when they were small.
