1. The Bopper: (speaking about the playground her daddy is building at their house-- I hope) "Daddy made a big one in the backyard!"
2. Ruby Jane: "If math were a person it would be my enemy."
3. Ruby Jane: "LM just said he hated me!"
Me: (frowning and shaking my head) "LM, we don't talk like that in this house. Tell your sister you love her."
LM: (grumbling) "I love you... smart-mouth."
4. Me: (as I caught LM taking a pair of scissors to his nice polo shirt) "What are you doing?!?"
LM: (dropping the scissors and running to hug me) "Sorry, Mom, I was just testing you."
(Uh...did I pass??)
5. Me: "Ugh! LM, did you just fart on me?!"
LM: (sitting on my lap, pleased as punch) "Yeah, do you like it?"
(Not exactly my cup of tea, no.)
6. LM: (inviting a strange neighbor girl inside the house to meet me) "There's my mom, does she look pretty beautiful?"
(Now, if only I could get him to repeat that line in the future when he brings his girlfriend over the first time. That oughta scare her off.... No, wait, I need to keep reminding myself I'm not going to be that kind of boy-mom. Remember, remember, remember!)

I love comments. Comments make a blog a conversation rather than a monologue. So join in! (Just, um, be nice and all that.)
