My 4yo daughter, at the dinner table, apropos to nothing: “I’m having fun being a white person!”

The other day while it was raining, I was washing out a garbage barrel. Inch3 is watching from the porch and says: "Why don't you leave it in the rain and it will fill up with water?"

It's scary.

SonofV handed me a little plastic "jewel",

a faceted red heart, and said, "Because you don't get enough love."

My daughter had broken out on her nose from the sunscreen I had been using on her. I wanted to put a little 'zit creme' on it before she went to bed. She said she didn't want any. Why? "Because I want to look like you mama!"

Ouch.

The other day my daughter said "Oh, cricket". Dunno where it came from, but we immediately adapted it and it became the phrase of choice for our houshold immediately.

Being the Beastie Boys fans that we are, we taught Inchling to refer to cold weather as "chilly most."

Tonight we are having our usual friday bachelor pizza fest with much frivolity, juice, wine, and Thomas the tank engine.

Also we get to do "guy things" like the perennial favorite "pull my finger"

I offer my finger and invite the inch to pull it. After the report, which was hilarious- trust me, inchling looks up at me and says
"That was funny most"

What can I expect the future to bring?

Panera pwnz too! atleast my store does

My second cousin (5), Moose, told me that he was gonna marry his mother's sister. It took me ten minutes to explain to him that his mother's sister was aunt K or aunt V. After he understood, he said he wanted to marry someone like his mother then. I didn't know how to respond, his mother married an abusive man, neglected Moose and his sibs, did/does drugs, almost gave them up for adoption, it took her 3 kids to figure out birth control, dropped outta HS...the list goes on. One day he'll understand, or maybe she'll clean up her act by then, in the mean time his Nanny (my Aunt) and his Aunt K are practically raising them. I love Moose and his sibs. His bro, Bay, will sit in your lap for hours if you let him, and his sis Al told me my name was Melissa...so true. Also Moose has developed a new habit of whispering to you. At his birthday party he ran around the room and whispered in everyone's ear "Thank you for the present"

Inch and SWMBO were at the grocery store today and he stared at the chicken going around the rotissery for a while then pointed at them and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"MOM! THAT CHICKEN HAS A PENIS."
"umm, that's actually its tail."
"AND IT HAS A MOUTH TOO."
