Random stories

Conversation with Tanner yesterday in the car after leaving Target:
Me - Oh darn, I forgot to get dishwashing liquid.
T - no, you didn't
Me - yeah, I did.
T (complete with "Mommy, you're an idiot" voice") - well, you got paper plates.

To him, that makes total sense.

**********************************************************************************

Tanner - mommymommymommymommymommymommymommymommymommy...
Tristan - if you keep saying it like that, mama's never gonna answer. You have to say it one time, like this - "MAMA!!!!!"

That Tristan, he was always a sharp kid.

Life is so unfair to Cade. I have limited his computer time to 1 1/2 hours per day due to a drop in grades. Much complaining, tears, and begging has come of this. So last night, we had this little exchange:

Me - it's 6:30, why don't you go get some computer time til 8?
C - Really?
Me - yeah, sure, why not?
C - You're the best mommy EVER! That's like for 3 hours!! COOL!!! (skips off happily)

OK, so I don't know whether or not I should be worried just yet that he can't deduce hours and minutes or to just be happy that I'm the best mommy ever due to his mistake. Hmmm...something to ponder.
