Your Laugh of the Day...

These recent quotes are compliments of my now-four-year-old (Taurus). Hope you enjoy!

Rus' favorite adjective is "lovely." He strings it to all of his most heart-felt statements...

"Thank you for my LOVELY birthday!"

"Dear God, we pray for this lovely, big family!"

Rus: "Mommy, I'm Cora's (the dog's) cousin just like Curtis is my cousin!"

"Mom, did you know that Cora is descended by wolves and Huskies?"

To his big brother... "You're not doing what Mom COMMANDED you to do!"

To his mom after her second day without a shower... "Mom, girls need makeup to make them pretty. May you put on your makeup?"

"I had a cookie at Grandma's, and it was DRAMA!" (this almond and teff cookie brought on a violent gag reflex. poor kid)

"When we're having dinner, I wish that Adam and Eve could come!" (he meant Adam and Leigh! :)

to his mom, "I'm glad that you're my teacher. I promise that I'll be with you forever and ever!"

About his baby brother... "Yeah, he's pretty discouraged with preschool."

Recently I exclaimed (a bit too boisterously) over some great writing of his. He said, "Actually Mom, could you turn down your volume because your volume is up."

Finally, he recently asked us the color of our pastor's new baby. After puzzling over this one, we realized that he was remembering our experience getting a baby puppy and assuming that the choices were either yellow or black...
