Speedy

Logan: "Do you know how fast I am? I beat Itsie in a race! Know how I beat him? <whispered> I cheated."

Texas

While sitting in the car waiting to park at Six Flags, Hurricane Harbor in Arlington, TX, Brody reads all of the license plates around us and says:

Why are all of these people from Texas? It's like we're the only ones from America!

Brothers or Friends?

The boys were goofing off while we waited in line to pay for their swim team suits. They found a big mirror and made funny faces into it, cracking each other up. Then they counted down 3-2-1! and made scary faces to see who could come up with the best one. They were giggling  like crazy and leaning close to whisper to each other. The cashier saw them and smiled. He turned to me and asked "Are they brothers or friends?" "Both", I replied. 

Looking in the mirror

This came home with Brody today. Should we add modesty to his list of good traits?

Big

Logan's class is learning about plants and flowers.  They planted seeds, learned the parts of a flower, and discussed the plant lifecycle.  His teacher, Mrs. Amend is awesome and tries to give them tangible comparisons while teaching.  For sunflowers, she asked the kids to think of the biggest adult they knew, because sunflowers can grow even bigger than that person.  Logan's classmates selected "Mrs. Weaver".

After 16.5 years together, Jacob was quick to clarify for Logan.  Mama is tall, not big.  Thanks, Jacob.  :)

Swimming babies

Logan called me over and said "I learned something today."  But instead of a statement, it was more of a question, as in, "I learned something today...?"  He continued:

"If you're a mommy and you have a baby in your belly...? And you go in a swimming pool...?  The baby will swim.  Because the water gets inside the mommy and so then the baby has to swim...?

I learned that today from Mrs. Rose at Winwood.  She's so smart."


Um... we're paying for this portion of his education.

Running

Brody: "Mama, why do you run so much? Oh, I know, it's because you eat so much candy."

Sigh, yep that's pretty much it.
