Funnies

When Tim isn't home for dinner I usually play restaurant with the kids. I talk in a southern accent, seat them at the table, tell the the special and take their orders. I always call them "sir" and the other day after I took their orders Blake pipes up and says, "Excuse, me, Ham, I'd like another glass of milk please". I told him my name is "Mam", and he said "OK, Ham".

We had a little cookout last night because the weather was so nice. We rarely eat hot dogs, so the kids have not had the opportunity to try them. Last night Bryce ate an entire hot dog on a bun with a little ketchup and I was telling him this morning how proud I am of him for trying the hot dog. Blake must have over heard this conversation from the other room because all of the sudden he grabbed my hand and said, "Mom, are you so proud of me for trying the 'bessert'?" (aka dessert)
I thought to myself, Wow Blake what a stretch, you tried something chocolate! However, it was obvious he needed some affection and praise, so I said "Yes, Blake, I am very proud of you every time you try something new".
Kids are so funny!
