A Couple QOTD

It's been awhile, but this week we had a couple of gems.
After I received an early Christmas gift of a pair of earrings, "Mommy, I'm so glad your ears are already punched." 
This morning my mom made fancy oats for everyone that included a grated apple. While she was grating F asked, "Granny Annie, why are you beating up that apple?"

QOTD

A couple today that made my heart melt.
"Mommy, where does the sidewalk end? Can we read the book and find out?"
Yes. We read about twenty poems, including that one.

"I'm tired. I think maybe I should go to bed early tonight."
That was FFM, NOT me for a change!

The Grandest Puppet Show

We had some spare time a couple nights ago and FFM put on a puppet show for us.  It was the "GrandMax Puppet Show" in the Grandest Puppet Show Theater.  It started out great and then got really, really, really repetitive.  Travis requested some new dialogue and perhaps a plot twist.

I suggested that perhaps F could draw from a story he knows for some inspiration.  He thought for a while and then said, "I know, someone could get in trouble!" Perhaps we need to change up our book selection.

After some more repeating...Travis suggested perhaps the animals could DO something.  Abruptly, instead of the kangaroos just making friends, the Mama Kangaroo took action and politely told the baby kangaroo, "You can't go outside right now I didn't put sunscreen on you!"

You just never know what twists and turns will take place in fine theater.

QOTD

"Emma and I are moving upstairs to play because downstairs isn't a good enough neighborhood."

I have NO idea where THAT came from.

Things You Only Say When You Are A Parent

"Yeah, time to go home.  I have a poopy sock in my pocket."
