What's your Mom like?

Anyone who knows me would probably agree I'm a little goofy.  I like to have fun, especially with my kids.  I play restaurant lady in the kitchen and have several different accents to apply depending on the type of food I am serving.  My boys enjoy it to a certain extent, but I usually push it to the point where they are begging me to talk normal again, haha!  Many of the neighborhood kids have come to my restaurant and gave rave reviews (I've heard from their parents, lol!).
 I can also be found singing and dancing in the kitchen every single day.  I'm not exaggerating.  Every.Single.Day.  The boys had friends over last weekend and I was carrying on in the kitchen as usual.  At one point Blake looked over at his friend and said, "does your Mom do this?"  and the boy said "NO".  I paused and asked Blake if I was embarrassing him and he said "No, not at all" . . . so I continued  bopping along to whatever kidz bop song was playing, thankful they haven't reached the embarrassing Mom stage yet . . . I'm guessing if we had girls we would already be there.

Boys like Girls

I was tucking Blake and Bryce into bed one night and Blake started talking about this girl he likes.  Yes, he is 9 years old and is girl CRAZY!  He tells us a story about his crush going to a particular spot to read every day, so he got there first and was so glad he did.  She came up and when she saw Blake sitting there he said he scooched over and looked up at her.  She then sat down next to him and he said he was so glad he did it because they talked the entire reading hour and he said "I really got to know her character, Mom, and I liker her even more now".  ;)
Bryce then chimed in saying this girl at school always hugs him and he doesn't like it.  Blake told him he knows what girl he is talking about and that the girl is actually very sweet.  Bryce says, "She's nice, but I only like older girls . . .  like Paige".  Paige is 21 years old!!!!!!! 
Lord help us!

Color Blind

Bryce was trying to describe a girl from school who is in 2nd grade.  He said, she is shorter than me and has gray hair.  I said, "Gray hair?  Are you talking about a student?" He said "Yes."
I asked, "Any chance her hair is brown instead of gray"?  He smiled, "Yeah, probaly, all looks the same to me, though".
