Some funny conversations
Briggs:
Did Daddy ever have any other girlfriends?
Me:
Yeah. In fact, one of them didn’t like me too much.
Briggs:
He did? Did he kiss them?
Me:
Yeah. I guess. (Me thinking…oh my…where is he going with this?)
Briggs:
But I thought you had to marry the first person that you kissed? (Side note: He just kissed Sara…his favorite three year old. I am wondering if he thought he already met his future wife.)
Me:
No, not quite but it would be nice. I had other boyfriends too.
Briggs:
No way!
…….
Briggs:
Mom, I think we should invent a car that can drive by itself so that on road trips we could watch movies as a family.
Me:
Now that would be cool.
Briggs:
It should also have seats that turn into beds so that if you get tired you can sleep laying down instead of sitting up.
Side note: Apparently, Briggs told this car idea to his friends yesterday while my neighbor was driving them to a party. He said it’s really cheap too!! It’s only $21 and 499 cents!!
……
Now I could also tell you about the conversation this evening between the boys and me regarding private parts and jungle terms…but I will spare you.
…
Special thanks to…Kevin Hohman for some recent fix-it jobs. Matt Zimpfer and Randy Julian for taking down the trampoline.
I am so happy that all of this is documented because one day you will all look back on this and either laugh or cry. Kids are very funny!
I will call you to get the scoop on the “private parts and jungle terms”
Miss you all and by for now.

Suzanne Sutliff - January 8th, 2008 at 4:02 pmI had a good one with William the other day… he told me he’s in love (with Caitlin who sits at his table in school). I asked him what it feels like. He said: “Mom, being in love is like…. eating tasty cookies!” It’s so cute what these little guys come up with.

Aunt 9 - January 8th, 2008 at 8:54 pmCome on Nine, you’re still a fox and always have been. Remember I’ve known you for a very very long time and I know a fox when I see one.
Out of the mouth of babes. Perhaps we should all pay a bit more attention.
