but remember...

the kid: mommy, I'm really hungry
me: you still have some soup (rice) and chicken 
the kid: (with a pathetic look on his face) but remember, I really need cookies.

it's so cute!

upon opening the box for his replacement controller for the PS2 (it's green), the kid exclaimed "it's so CUTE! I LOVE it! Thank you SO much!" Of course, he had to go try it out and verify that it really works.

amazing grace

dear God, please watch over mommy and daddy and me. and keep us safe. and thank you for our food, 'specially chicken and fries. and peanut butter. amen.

don't be scared

the hubby and the kid decided to go out for a walk. before they left, the kid says to me "mommy, don't be scared. you'll be okay. we will be right back." ♥

actions speak louder

the kid climbed up next to me on the couch, laid his head on my arm, sighed, and then started snoring. ♥

what happened to "please"?

the kid: mommy, daddy's patting my head.
me: if you want him to stop, ask him to stop.
the kid: daddy, mommy said stop.
hubby: what happened to "please"?
the kid: mommy didn't say please. and if you don't listen to her, you'll be in TIME OUT!!! so BEHAVE!

night-night daddy-o.

the kid just tucked his daddy in bed...
dear God, please watch over daddy and keep him safe. and give him sweet dreams. amen. daddy, don't be scared. God will help you have a great sleep. night-night daddy-o.

the kid: mommy, I need to go to the doctor. my tummy feels yucky and my throat hurts.
me: the doctor is closed. I'll take you to the doctor tomorrow if you still feel yucky.
I gave him a dose of Zyrtec and rubbed some Vick's on his chest/back/feet. 10 minutes later...
the kid: mommy! I feel all better! the yuckies are gone, so the doctor can be closed FOREVER!

it's all good

me: did you have a good day today?
the kid: yes.
me: what was your favorite part?
the kid: all of it.

don't make me angry...

the hubby was teasing the kid... the kid pointed at his daddy and firmly said, "daddy, cut it out. I'm about to get mad at you." HA!
