The Inspiration

We were visiting my parents and my grandmother was there. As we were leaving to head home, our 5-year-old kept hugging his great-grandmother over and over and telling her, "I just can't stop hugging you!" My grandmother was loving it! After a couple of minutes of this, we were finally able to convince him to join us in the car to leave. Giving her one last squeeze, he said to his great-grandmother, "Bye! Call me when you die!"

This is our inspiration. The truly hilarious, way-better-than-fiction, actual sayings and experiences with the wee little folk around us is what this blog is all about. We invite you to share the joy!

Popcorn Lover

From my sister:

Popcorn is G's (4) favorite snack right now.  I even taught him how to make it in the microwave.  Right before bed one night he asked me if he could sleep with the popcorn.  I told him under no conditions could he have food in his room when he was trying to go to sleep.  He assured me he just wanted an unpopped bag of microwave popcorn to sleep with.  He said he would leave it in the wrapping.  

It took some convincing, but I eventually said it would be ok as long as he didn't open the bag up and spill kernels everywhere.  Then he said maybe my favorite line of the year, "Mom, I just love sleeping with popcorn....dont' you?"  Me:  "Um.....sure......just don't tell anyone we had this conversation, ok?"
