Don't get wet....that is adorable----just too cute.

I went and asked my six year old what ice fishing was, and he told me to a 't,' but that is because some people were doing it a couple weeks ago, and we told him how it works; he pretty much word for word said what we had said about it---he thought that was funny that your son said fishing for ice----he laughed about it and then said something a few minutes later--and said that was 'cute.' (not like he does not do it all the time)-----but it was great that he remembered; we were impressed, and surprised he remembered; we expected 'fishin' for ice' ourselves---Ruthie

I love the roll call! My mom did it too since there were

three of us girls and she had the brilliant idea to make all our full names

rhyme.

Our son has a different take. When he’s in trouble

& I call him Garrett Alan, he always responds “I’m not Alan.”

(Who is dad.) I always come back with “Quit acting like him then.”

This usually fixes the problem but my husband doesn’t appreciate the

approach too much! J

Re: Chuckle for the day

As long as we're sharing, I

have to add mine from today. It seems

like there's a new story every week. In fact, I keep track of these

funny stories on my computer's calendar. I just quickly jot it down

on the day because someday, I can write a book!

Anyway, our 5 year old AS son was playing around with his Dad today

when he just excitedly stopped and said, " Hey, look at my arm. I'm

starting to get my Daddy hair. " We looked at each other and started

laughing. He held his arm up to his dad's and said, " Look. Pretty

soon I'll have all my Daddy hair, just like you. " So, Daddy decided

to play with him a bit and asked, " Do you have hair here (pointing to

his upper lip) like me yet? " went to look in the mirror and

came out saying, " Yup. I'm even getting my mouth Daddy hair. " He's

been walking around all evening rubbing his 'mouth Daddy hair'.

How funny!

we must learn not to ask them what they said as my son too will repeat it everytime and he tells people what others say too, so we always tell them if you don't want it repeated later don't say it in front of , b/c he will tell it if he know it.

Today I kept hearing a faint sound - sounded like a dog crying far away. I knew it was a real sound because I watched my own dog and she perked her ears whenever she heard the same noise. I asked my ds (11 yo, hfa) if he heard that sound. What sound? he asked. I said, "It sounds like a dog crying far away." And my ds replied, "There is no sound. But that's what happens when you get really old. You start hearing things."

Um, tvs WERE black and white when I was little.
