Sacrates put the mans head in water and after he was struggling for air he took his head out and told him, when you NEED and WANT to feast on the word as much as you wanted air, then come back....

Funny Boys

I am convinced that boys just want grow up and be funny. And I am NOT opposed to laughing. There are good days to come :) Here are a few instances where my boys made me LOL without any effort on their part. I think they are off to a good start. Connor Connor LOVES his Vitamins. When he asks for them it sounds like spider man or superman (thats not the funny part, although it was at one time, until this...) Well I let him have 3 at once this time and I guess he didn't want to pop them in all at once, so he stashed them. WHERE he stashed them is what gave me a good case of the giggles. check it out :)

Logan Logan logan logan. This kid is funny. So we are in the car, driving back from Utah and I think being in a car for many hours just made this more funny than it already was. Logan asked over and over if he could hold the tv so I finally crawled back to unhook it from the seat and let him. (thinking the light from outside must have been glaring on the screen.) Boy was I wrong. He had something else in mind :) He's stylin! Do you agree?

Brayden Today he was playing at the neighbors when he came home trying to get me to buy a NuWave oven. Well I've seen the infomercial before, and I WAS sold the first time. But I resisted it once and I can do it again. I hope ;) so we talked about how we have an oven...and a crock pot and a pan that you can put in the oven to let the grease drain (he kept trying to sell me on that one). Without going into to much detail that brought Brayden to the realization that I was not going to purchase it. He decided we could build one (Seriously kid, I don't build ovens?!). He has always dreamed big, and today is no different. But I wasn't going to tell him he couldn't do it!!! Just like I told him, YES! Absolutely you can build the next big theme park (he already has rides thought out and they are in the blueprints) or Yes with a couple more weeks of practice with Dad you can be the next Steve Nash. ANYWAY, So here we are Building a NuWave oven together. I told him to draw a pic and figure out what we need and I will help him. Not kidding, he just came in to me with scissors to cut out some of my hair, Apparently he needs hair for this oven to work. And not just one piece. So I gave him what was in my brush. Anyone interested in the New and IMPROVED NuWave oven? Chack it out

Bragging rights

Yes, I deserve bragging rights. here goes.

At church Brayden gets TONS of treats from his teachers. We encourage him to share but ultimately it is his decision. Today he got a big delicious brownie. He offers some to each person and after my bite I tell him this is one of dads FAVORITE treats so of course he is so excited to share some with daddy. However, it is fast sunday and daddy tells him he would love some but he is fasting. So Brayden goes home, saves a bite for dad, puts it in a ziplock bag with a paper that says "to dad, from brayden, You can eat this tomorrow" WHAT A SWEET thing to do! (and this is not the first time he has done things like this)

In Fast and testimony meeting a woman is baring her testimony and starts to cry. A boy sitting on his dads lap,same age as Logan, asks "why is she crying?" Logan turns and says in a reverent but loud enough for the boy to hear him voice says "she's feeling the spirit"...exactly:)
