Big A, little a

When I picked you up at school today, you had a worksheet that you had done. You were supposed to circle all the "A" and "a". I looked at it and you had circled all kinds of letters. I asked you, "What letter did you learn about today?" You looked at me and very matter of factly said, "I don't follow directions". When Daddy got home later, he asked you if you were good at school today and you said "I don't follow directions". Apparently your teacher told you that you don't follow directions.

Don't worry baby, most men don't follow directions.

A Swimming Pool with a Divingboard in the Backyard..............

When asked what you wanted Santa to bring you for Christmas, you said you wanted a "swimming pool with a divingboard in the back yard". I told you that wouldn't fit on Santa's sleigh, so you decided you wanted him to bring you a "big Toy Story Taa-da Head". I think Santa may be able to handle that!

Pillow Pet

Today you and Daddy were laying down together and you laid your head on Daddy's back and you said, "Daddy, you're my pillow pet." So sweet! I guess I'll have to get you one for your birthday now since you've been asking for one for the last year.

New Favorite Phrase

"Heck No!" Need I say more? :-/

Happy Birthday!

At church when it's someone's birthday or anniversary, they stand up front and we sing either Happy Birthday or Happy Anniversary. The other day when we were singing Happy "Dirday", you were singing along (in your own little way) and then when we finished, you said "Where's da CAKE?!"

The Mailman

I bought you something off of ebay the other day, you were very excited to get it. I kept having to remind you it would arrive in the mail in a few days. After you got it, you told me that the mailman got it for you. I tried explaining to you that I got it for you, the mailman just delivered it. I cannot change your mind, you're convinced that the mail man gets you gifts!

Rain is a Good Thing

You got to see your first rainbow the other day. You were truly amazed by it. When we came back outside, you were wondering where it was. I explained to you, they only happen occassionally after it rains, when the light from the sun hits water droplets in the air just right. You were quiet a minute (this is very RARE) and then you busted out in song, "Rain's a Good Thang". I said what did you say? So again, you sang "Rain's a Good Thang". That really cracked me up! What's even funnier, now that you've thought about it and you hate that you can't go outside and play when it's raining, you sing "Rain's Not a Good Thang". Such a sense of humor you have.
