As tall as Mama

While eating a waffle, Logan raises his hand above his head and says: "if I eat all this, I'll be this big!" I tell him, "I hope so buddy. Do you think you'll ever be as tall as me?" He thinks and says, "Maybe if I stand on a chair."

Another day, Brody was telling me about being a teenager. He said he was going to grow to be taller than Dada when he was a teenager. I asked, "When do you think you'll grow taller than me?" Brody responded, "Hmm... maybe never."

My boys, who are consistently under the 25th percentile for height during check-ups, have very realistic expectations about their size. :)

My son, the ninja

Says Logan: "When I'm a ninja, I want to be the gold one." Replies Brody: "When I'm a ninja, I want to be the green one since he can be the green one or the gold one."  

I'm looking forward to the mom competitions of my future. When someone else boasts that their child is a doctor, lawyer, etc, I will tell them that's nice, but my sons are ninjas. And ninjas always win.
