- Blue is very interested in Presidents and borrowed a book from the library about all the presidents. He was sitting and looking through it, and I asked him what he was learning from the book. He says, “Presidents have pet donkeys and elephants.”
- I gave Cooper a cookie the other day, and he says, “this tastes like sh___.” I say, “ummm, what did you just say?” He says, “this tastes like sh____.” So I thought, there’s no way he’s heard that word, what could he possibly be saying instead? I asked him to point to it, and he goes into the pantry and points at the chips…. phew…
- I had just gotten through a dinner with my boys, when I reflected on the wisdom I’d passed onto them during that time period- “the freezer is not a playground, please get out of it.” ”well, that’s what happens when you put lightning mcqueen in your milk, he gets wet.” ”no, we don’t talk about (insert body parts) at the table, eat your chicken.”
- I accidentally drove down a road that was blocked off and then I couldn’t turn around. I said out loud, “I wonder if I should just move those cones and go through.” Aiden says, “No! mama you’ll go to jail!”
- Tiny Talk Tuesday.

Hi Kristen, I know you’re not soliciting advice but encourage that fascination for U.S. Presidents. My grandfather encouraged me and I knew them all in order by the time I was in kindergarten. And every now and then when something random strikes me, I’ll wonder what this particular president’s personality was like or how this one passed away. It’s been an interesting lifelong passion of mine.
Have you taken Blue to the Hermitage or Polk’s house in Columbia?

That is so funny – all the things YOU had to say. I have thought about that before – we should have a TTT…what mom has to say…
I feel better knowing our dinner is much the same sometimes
Happy TTT!

Adorable! Pet donkeys and elephants! Love it! And one day they will be able to pass on your dinner time wisdom to their children.

So funny! That’s one thing I’ve missed out on having all girls as opposed to all boys. The bodily functions and body parts are just not funny to girls.

The other day Aron came running into the kitchen yelling at the top of his lungs just to tell me that I could get a “Coca Cola at McDonald’s!!” I am gonna have to do TTT’s! I have tons of material…
