Kid Comedy

My kids are so funny, here's proof.
Dude -
It never ceases to amaze me that the same phrases pass from one generation of kids to another. Here are some things that Dude has said in the past week:
*You're not the boss of me!
*Finders keepers, losers weepers!
*It's a free country!
I remember saying all of these when I was his age.


Princess -
We went to see Santa today (I'll post pictures later), and poor Princess lost her letter outside in the rain. I told her that I bet Santa will see it and take it back with him to the North Pole. She said, "Oh, is he a good eye man?" Yes, Princess he is.

She's also very creative. At preschool the other day she discovered a way to make paper flower bouquets. All the other kids liked them so much that she spent time with each child teaching them how. She's a good helper with Megaman, too. This is how I found them after I answered a phone call.
Honey Bunch -
When it was time to go after seeing Santa, Honey Bunch shouted, "Mom! You forgot!!!" When I asked her what we forgot she said, "My presents!" Poor girl will have a hard time waiting until Christmas.
HB loves to sing. Here's "Skip To A Lou, My Dolly" (aka: skip to the lou my darling)

Megaman -

MM has started to crawl! Yikes! He loves "keeping up" with the big kids and chasing them around the house. He also loves the Christmas tree.

When I was growing up I hated our Christmas tree. I thought it was so ugly. My mom insisted on placing every ornament/decoration my brother and I ever made from birth on up. She loved her memory tree and I always swore that I would have a beautiful designer tree in my adulthood. My mom would just smile. Now, I get it. Our tree is covered with memories, and I couldn't imagine it any other way.

Anyone can have a store bought tree but a memory tree.....well there is nothing like it.

I miss your kids when I read these things! They are all hilarious! You are such a great Mom to write them down. Any it's true about the memory tree - it's only Peanut's first real Christmas, but it's amazing how quickly you really start to "get it" once you're a parent. Love you guys!
