Oh kids...

Setting: today at Shelley's. Jack (my 3 year old nephew)- "Lindsay I want you and Jordan and Josh and Zack to come to my birthday party." I hope it's Spider Man themed.

Setting: tonight at my mom's b-day dinner. Ella (my 2 year old niece) announces she has a secret to tell me. She comes over and whispers (loudly) to me, "Doggies!"

Setting: last week at Shelley's. Maya (my 7 year old niece) makes me a "Baby in Here" sticker with her new sticker machine and places it on my belly.

Setting: about a month ago at Shelley's tending. Maya- "Hey Lindsay, if you had a real job what would it be?" Me-"I do have a real job. I teach first graders like you." Jack-"My mom doesn't have a job." Me-"She does to. She's your mom." Maya-"You're a mom. If my mom had a job she'd probably be a piano teacher." This is only funny because despite some natural god-given ability, her mom hasn't ever taken piano lessons. No offense Shell.

First grade quotes to come. I just thought I'd better get these down before I forget them.

Don't you just love the things kids say! I love it. I also noticed that I am not the only night owl around. :) 1:48 am I think it was... We actually even set a new years resolution to go to bed earlier this year and it just hasn't happened. Oh well.

I love it when you post the "things kids say". They give me a good laugh during the days when I think about them. Keep them coming! Do you know every year I remember it is your mom's bday on April Fools Day since she was my teacher in 6th grade? Tell her I think about her on her bday every year! :)

I absolutely LOVE that Maya made you a "baby in here" sticker. That's a great one. I'm sure you continue to wear it to this day!
