“No Sam. You can’t have more cake. You just asked for some ice cream by itself.”
“Uncle, I just don’t get you sometimes.”
<laughter>
“Sam, that’s probably a good thing.”
“Uncle, I think we should just change the subject and talk about something else. Like the people we love in our lives.”

“Mom I NEED MILK NOW!”
“Marcel, can you turn that into a request instead of a demand?”
“Sure. (pause) Can I need milk now PUH-LEASE DARLING BEAUTIFUL MOM?”
***
“Does Marcel have a daddy?”
“That is a good question.”
“No, mom don’t start it that way. That means I have to wait a long time and I will stop hearing the answer then.”
***
“Mom look out there is a peacock coming out of your nose!”
“Oh no!” (grabbing my nose while laughing with Marcel.)
No! That is not what you say MOM. You are supposed to say; So there is a peacock coming out of my nose!

“Mom, I like it better when you have your about to smile and say something I like it when you say face.”
“Do I dare ask what the other face is Sam?”
“Your I am about to yell and not be happy with your bad choice face. Duh mom.”
Laughing OUT LOUD! (remember when we used to write these words out?)
Then I read it to O.B. and he laughed out loud, too.
What would we do without our children?!

OMG! That is TOO funny! Your kids are a hoot! I needed that laugh today. Thanks.
