Me: What's that?
Declan: You know, Pope Yes, where they have chicken sandwiches.
Me: You mean Popeyes?
Declan: Oh that's how you spell Popeyes?

Brendan (age 5): Mom! Xander is being so hypocritical!
Me: (Trying not to laugh that my Kindergartner uses the word hypocritical) What's he doing?
Brendan: He is just so sarcastic and then he told me that I'm sarcastic, and that's being hypocritical!

Xander (10): Mom, babies come out of their mother's belly buttons, right?
Me: Nope
Xander: Then how do they get out?
Me: Welllll, moms have a special hole where babies come out.
*tries to find an actual hole to crawl into and get out of this conversation*
Maggie (14): Wait, how many holes do I have??
Me:
Maggie:
Xander:
Me: Maggie, we need to talk.

JP (age 18): I'm worried about my first semester grades.
Dad: It's an adjustment period, grad schools will understand, and you will bring them up next semester.
JP: My Advisor said I need to get all As to get into a PA school.
*sigh*
I guess I might just have to go to medical school and become a doctor instead.

Xander (10): Today I saw my old teacher and she walked the other way to avoid me.
Me: I'm sure she just didn't see you.
Xander: Oh, she definitely saw me. I'm the reason she quit!
Declan and Pope Yes!! That's straight up a tell me you're Catholic without telling me your Catholic moment!!!

ReplyDelete"Opening" is much more delicate.
ReplyDeleteGood times.
Definitely. I wish you had been in the kitchen to answer the questions!
Deletethese are great!!!
ReplyDeleteSo funny. I remember wondering the same thing as Maggie. It wasn't really explained well for years. ;) I told Tank not to worry about his grades because he seemed stressed. That may have been a mistake. I recently asked him how often he sees a girl we know from Irish dancing and he said, WELL I SEE HER OUT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, BUT NOT EVERYONE GOES OUT EVERY NIGHT, BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE HAS A MOM THAT TOLD THEM THEIR GRADES DIDN'T MATTER. Ouch. Tank is not planning on grad school and I JUST WANTED HIM NOT TO FEEL STRESSED. I didn't mean for him to relax quite that much.
