One more...

I had to add one more to the "funny kids" that Hudson said to me yesterday. We were out playing and our neighbors Clara and her little girl Halena came over to play. Clara and I were sitting on the porch bench talking. Hudson comes up and asks if I would play basketball with him. ..

Me: "Not right now Hudson." (Don't judge :) We play plenty )
H: "Mom, you've been sitting there forever." (it had been maybe 5 minutes)
Me: "Hudson just go play for a bit, okay?"
H: "C'mon Mom! Seriously you haven't done anything today! You need to come play with me!"
Me: "Hudson, what do you think I have done today?"
H: "Well, you went for a jog, then you have been on the couch for the rest of the day."

Awesome. So while Hudson is at school he thinks I sit on the couch all day. No wonder we have so many miscommunications.

Me: "Hudson, when you grow up and become a Daddy you will realize I do something all day."
Clara: "Maybe not."

That made me laugh.

Funny Kids

M&M's
For Abram's birthday I had M&M's scattered on the table as part of the decor. (I knew once the kids noticed, there would be no resisting). Sadie noticed first and asked if she could have one. I told her let's wait until Abram wakes up and the party starts. A few minutes later she tries again. "Just one mom and that's it." I told her if she had one then she would ask for more. "nope, I won't I'll have just one." Me, "just one. and you won't ask for more." "yep." "okay." She takes one and eats it. Not more that one minute later, "can I have one more M&M?" Oh, Sade I love you.

Hudson Needs a Furnace
Hudson came home from school.
"Mom I need a furnace."
m: "a furnace?"
h: "yes. I need a furnace to take to school."
m: "a furnace to take to school?"
h: "yes."
m: "why?"
h: "to keep things warm."
m: "like what?"
h: "like if I want to bring hot chocolate, or soup."
m: "Oh, you mean a thermos!"
h: "Oh, a thermos."
